Sàrl incorporation for taxi operators in Sils im Domleschg: the practical guide
Sàrl incorporation for taxi operators in Sils im Domleschg rests on three pillars: federal law that applies across Switzerland, cantonal deadlines worth knowing, and tools that eliminate re-keying. This guide puts it all in order, fact by fact.
Choosing the structure: Sàrl, SA or sole proprietorship
Contributions in kind (vehicle, equipment, client portfolio) are possible when founding a Sàrl or an SA, but they follow strict valuation and disclosure rules. Cash contribution remains the simple route, in Sils im Domleschg as elsewhere.
First accounting reflex for Sàrl incorporation: open the document numbering with the very first expense, even before registration. Founding costs are deductible — if documented.
The Swiss legal frame for Sàrl incorporation
Whether a business sits in Sils im Domleschg or elsewhere in Switzerland, the same federal law applies — one of the strengths of the Swiss system for Sàrl incorporation. Cantonal differences concentrate on taxation (rates, filing deadlines); bookkeeping itself follows art. 957 ff. CO everywhere.
The annual accounts (art. 958 CO) consist of the balance sheet, the income statement and the notes; they must be drawn up within six months of the year-end so the general meeting can approve them. A delay here cascades into the tax return and the final social insurance settlements.
Swiss VAT: rates, threshold and filings
The most frequent VAT mistakes are well known: the wrong rate among 8.1%, 2.6% and 3.8%, forgotten self-supplies, and a rushed annual reconciliation. Corrections are due at the latest in the return for the period containing the 180th day after the year-end — the earlier you correct, the less default interest runs.
Also useful for Sàrl incorporation: some supplies are excluded from VAT (health, education, property rental) — with no corresponding input VAT right. Qualifying revenues correctly from the start avoids surprises.
Digitalising Sàrl incorporation: what actually works
Accounting digitalisation always follows the same path: capture documents at the source (photo or PDF upload), let automatic recognition extract supplier, amount, date and VAT, approve the proposed entries, then archive each document linked to its entry. Every step removes a re-keying — and therefore an error source.
For an SME in Sils im Domleschg, the real gain of digitalised Sàrl incorporation shows day to day: no paper pile at month-end, VAT prepared continuously, and an owner reading today's figures rather than last quarter's.
Sils im Domleschg: what changes, what does not
Sils im Domleschg (postal code 7411, canton Grisons) applies the same federal rules as the rest of the country: what changes in Sils im Domleschg are the cantonal counterparts — tax administration, compensation office, commercial register.
Sils im Domleschg requires no special bookkeeping: the Code of Obligations applies at postal code 7411 as everywhere else, and a well-kept digital file transfers smoothly to any auditor in the canton.

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 Sils im Domleschg manages its documents, VAT and exports exactly as anywhere in Switzerland.
When is entry in the commercial register mandatory?
A Sàrl and an SA only come into existence with their registration.

Registration goes through the canton's commercial register office — for Sils im Domleschg too.
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 Sils im Domleschg.
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.
