Sàrl incorporation template in Féchy: the practical guide
Whether you run a Sàrl, an SA or a sole proprietorship in Féchy, Sàrl incorporation eventually lands on your desk. Here are the practical reference points — legal basis, deadlines and common pitfalls — to decide with a clear head.
Choosing the structure: Sàrl, SA or sole proprietorship
Settling in Féchy does not change federal law, but the canton shapes what follows: profit and capital tax rates, family allowances, possible start-up support. Comparing seriously before fixing the seat can pay off — moving a company later costs more.
On the Sàrl incorporation side, the first financial year may be longer or shorter than a calendar year: choosing the first closing date wisely avoids a pointless mini-closing.
Digitalising Sàrl incorporation: what actually works
Artificial intelligence has changed the economics of Sàrl incorporation: automatic invoice reading reaches recognition rates that make manual entry marginal, and posting suggestions learn from corrections. The accountant does not disappear — the job shifts from data entry to control and advice.
For Sàrl incorporation, migrating history must not block the start: begin on day one of the current financial year and import the history later if needed.
The Swiss legal frame for Sàrl incorporation
A small business does not mean small obligations: from the first salary or the first VAT return, mistakes get expensive — in Féchy as anywhere.
Also worth knowing: accounts may be drawn up in the currency most relevant to the business; if that is not the franc, values must additionally be stated in CHF (art. 958d para. 3 CO). Internationally active companies gain books that match their economic reality.
Salaries and social contributions: the rates to know
The salary certificate is an official tax document: it feeds the employee's tax return and serves as the reference in AHV and tax audits. Issued once a year, it must match payroll accounting and the declaration to the compensation office to the centime.
For Sàrl incorporation, the monthly payslip is only the visible part: instalments to the funds, annual settlements and certificates form the real cycle, January to January.
Féchy: what changes, what does not
Sole proprietorship, Sàrl or SA in Féchy: the AHV contact remains the competent compensation office, and taxes follow the scales of the canton Vaud.
For a business in Féchy, that means VAT returns identical to anywhere in Switzerland, but a tax return and family allowances governed by the canton Vaud.
Frequently asked questions
Does MyFiducia.ai work for a business based in Féchy?
Yes: the platform runs online, the rules applied are federal (VAT, CO, AHV), and the file can be shared with any fiduciary. A business in Féchy manages its documents, VAT and exports exactly as anywhere in Switzerland.
Which social contributions does a Swiss employer pay?
AHV/IV/APG: 5.3% employer share (the same is withheld from the employee); unemployment insurance: 1.1% each up to CHF 148,200 a year; occupational pension (LPP) by age and plan (employer at least 50%); occupational accident insurance paid by the employer; family allowances by canton. For an employer in Féchy, family allowances follow the canton's rates.
Do you need a fiduciary for Sàrl incorporation, or can you do it yourself?
Both are defensible. Below CHF 500,000 of revenue, a sole proprietorship may keep simplified accounts itself. As soon as payroll, VAT and a closing with tax stakes are involved, professional support prevents mistakes that cost more than the fees. With a shared platform, the fiduciary does not even need to be in Féchy.
What are the legal obligations for Sàrl incorporation in Switzerland?
The foundation is the Code of Obligations: proper bookkeeping (art. 957a CO), annual accounts (balance sheet, income statement, notes) and 10-year retention of books and records (art. 958f CO). VAT applies from CHF 100,000 of turnover, and social insurance settlements from the first employee. Nothing is different in Féchy: federal law applies.
