Everything that matters about LPP pension reporting deadlines in Morges
Whether you run a Sàrl, an SA or a sole proprietorship in Morges, 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
In Switzerland, the duty to keep accounts stems from art. 957 ff. of the Code of Obligations. Legal entities (Sàrl, SA) and sole proprietorships with at least CHF 500,000 in revenue keep full accounts: balance sheet, income statement and notes. Below that threshold, a simplified record of income, expenses and assets is sufficient.
One simple principle drives LPP pension reporting: 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.
Salaries and social contributions: the rates to know
Hiring the first employee triggers everything at once: affiliation to AHV and LPP funds, accident insurance, family allowances, working-time rules. A complete payroll file from day one avoids catch-ups.
An often underestimated point: self-employed status is granted by the compensation office — or not. Whoever invoices essentially one main client risks requalification as an employee, with contribution arrears charged to the principal. Clarifying AHV status before starting avoids that trap.
Digitalising LPP pension reporting: what actually works
Digitising does not mean hoarding PDFs: without the document-entry link, a digital file is as opaque as a box of archives — true in Morges as everywhere.
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?
Splitting roles clearly avoids duplication: the company captures documents and approves payments; the fiduciary checks postings, closes the year and defends the file before the authorities. Each side does what it does best — and nobody keys the same invoice twice.
A business in Morges can combine the models: internal day-to-day entry, monthly external supervision, closing and taxes with the specialist — LPP pension reporting splits very well.
Morges: what changes, what does not
Morges (postal code 1110, canton Vaud) applies the same federal rules as the rest of the country: what changes in Morges are the cantonal counterparts — tax administration, compensation office, commercial register.
Federal deadlines do not move in Morges: VAT within 60 days, salary declaration in January, 10-year record retention — postal code 1110 changes nothing about those rules, only the sender's address.
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 Morges can therefore archive fully digitally.
Can LPP pension reporting be automated with AI?
Largely, yes: automatic document reading, posting suggestions, bank reconciliation via QR references and VAT exports. Human approval remains essential — AI prepares, the professional checks. That is exactly how MyFiducia.ai approaches LPP pension reporting.
How much does LPP pension reporting cost in Morges?
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.
Do you need a fiduciary for LPP pension reporting, 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 Morges.
