Annual accounts pricing in Bergün Filisur: rules, deadlines, best practice
Annual accounts pricing in Bergün Filisur raises the same questions for most Swiss SME owners: which obligations apply, which deadlines are running, which documents to prepare. This page covers the federal rules in force — without unnecessary jargon.
Year-end closing: how the mechanics work
Depreciation follows rates accepted by tax practice (property, machinery, IT): staying within those ranges avoids reassessments. Exceeding them is justified — and documented, in Bergün Filisur as anywhere.
A well-ordered closing file speeds everything up: bank statements at the closing date, a signed inventory, final AHV/LPP/accident settlements, new or amended contracts, and support for the accruals. Annual accounts in Bergün Filisur then finishes in days, not weeks.
The Swiss legal frame for annual accounts
Three documents summarise the health of a Swiss business: the balance sheet (what it owns), the income statement (what it earns) and the notes (what else you should know). All the work of annual accounts converges on those three pages, in Bergün Filisur too.
One simple principle drives annual accounts: every franc in or out must be explainable by a document, an entry and an account. All of Swiss accounting law fits inside that traceability requirement.
A well-structured SME chart of accounts
The test of a good chart of accounts is a single question: can the owner find the margins in three clicks? If not, the chart serves the tax office but not the business — even in Bergün Filisur.
For annual accounts, a few well-chosen analytical accounts (by activity, by site) beat a forest of sub-accounts nobody ever reads.
A Swiss SME's accounting calendar
Every deadline has an owner: an obligation “of everyone” is kept by no one. Naming one person per deadline family (VAT, payroll, taxes) closes the gaps.
For annual accounts, year-end is prepared in October: last invoices, investment decisions, provisions to assess — December is too late to act, January is for recording.
Bergün Filisur: what changes, what does not
Sole proprietorship, Sàrl or SA in Bergün Filisur: the AHV contact remains the competent compensation office, and taxes follow the scales of the canton Grisons.
Federal deadlines do not move in Bergün Filisur: VAT within 60 days, salary declaration in January, 10-year record retention — postal code 7477 changes nothing about those rules, only the sender's address.
Frequently asked questions
When must a business register for VAT?
As soon as its worldwide annual turnover reaches CHF 100,000 (CHF 250,000 for non-profit sports or cultural associations). Below that, voluntary registration remains possible and often makes sense to reclaim input VAT on investments. The threshold is federal: it applies in Bergün Filisur as everywhere in Switzerland.
How much does annual accounts cost in Bergün Filisur?
It depends on document volume, the number of salaries and VAT complexity — no serious figure can be quoted without examining the file. Two levers cut the bill everywhere: digitised, well-filed receipts and software that prepares entries instead of having them re-keyed.
What are the current Swiss VAT rates?
Since 1 January 2024: 8.1% (standard), 2.6% (reduced — for example food and medicines) and 3.8% (accommodation). Returns must be filed and paid within 60 days after the period ends (quarterly under the effective method, semi-annually under the net tax rate method). These federal rates apply unchanged in Bergün Filisur.
Which documents should be prepared for the year-end closing?
Bank and cash statements at the closing date, the inventory of stock and work in progress, final AHV/LPP/accident settlements, contracts signed or amended during the year, invoices straddling two years and the detail of accruals. With an up-to-date document archive, most of it is already there. The list is identical in Bergün Filisur: the CO dictates it, not the commune.
