Everything that matters about LPP pension reporting cost in Gilly
Whether you run a Sàrl, an SA or a sole proprietorship in Gilly, LPP pension reporting eventually lands on your desk. Here are the practical reference points — legal basis, deadlines and common pitfalls — to decide with a clear head.
The Swiss legal frame for LPP pension reporting
For an owner in Gilly, the question is never “do we need accounts?” but “at what level of detail?”. The CO sets the floor; the bank, the tax office and the shareholders set the rest.
Art. 957a CO requires complete, truthful and systematic recording of transactions, each entry backed by a supporting document. For LPP pension reporting, that means in practice: no movement without a receipt, and an audit trail that can be reconstructed at any time — including during a VAT or AHV inspection.
Digitalising LPP pension reporting: what actually works
Security is part of digitalisation: named access, tested backups, encryption of sensitive data. A digital accounting file is protected like a safe — because it is one.
The winning pair for LPP pension reporting: a single inbox (e-mail, scan, photo) and one simple rule — no document sits more than a few days without a proposed entry.
Outsource LPP pension reporting or keep it in-house?
Outsourcing LPP pension reporting to a fiduciary frees up time and secures compliance; keeping it in-house preserves a continuous view and costs less in fees. The best answer is often hybrid: the company captures and digitises as it goes, the fiduciary supervises, closes the books and represents the company before the authorities.
A business in Gilly is no longer limited to fiduciaries in its canton: with a shared online platform, collaboration works remotely, documents and entries visible to both sides in real time. The choice widens to all of Switzerland — competence becomes the criterion again, not the postcode.
Salaries and social contributions: the rates to know
Family allowances are financed by the employer through a cantonal compensation fund — rates and amounts vary from canton to canton, including in Gilly. They come on top of the federal social insurances and appear on every payslip.
For LPP pension reporting, the monthly payslip is only the visible part: instalments to the funds, annual settlements and certificates form the real cycle, January to January.
Gilly: what changes, what does not
Gilly (postal code 1182, canton Vaud) applies the same federal rules as the rest of the country: what changes in Gilly are the cantonal counterparts — tax administration, compensation office, commercial register.
For a business in Gilly, that means VAT returns identical to anywhere in Switzerland, but a tax return and family allowances governed by the canton Vaud.
Frequently asked questions
How long must records related to LPP pension reporting be kept?
Ten years from the end of the financial year concerned (art. 958f CO). Electronic retention is permitted if the integrity and readability of the records are guaranteed — a serious digital archive validly replaces paper binders. A business in Gilly can therefore archive fully digitally.
Does MyFiducia.ai work for a business based in Gilly?
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 Gilly manages its documents, VAT and exports exactly as anywhere in Switzerland.
How much does LPP pension reporting cost in Gilly?
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.
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 Gilly, family allowances follow the canton's rates.
