Fiduciary services deadlines in Pomy without the stress: how it works
Delegate, digitalise or do it all yourself? Around fiduciary services in Pomy, every SME draws its own line. The reference points below — federal law, cantonal practice and lessons from the field — help you place the cursor well.
The Swiss legal frame for fiduciary services
A small business does not mean small obligations: from the first salary or the first VAT return, mistakes get expensive — in Pomy as anywhere.
One simple principle drives fiduciary services: 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.
Outsource fiduciary services or keep it in-house?
Outsourcing does not exempt you from understanding: an owner who can read the balance sheet and the income statement challenges the fiduciary better — and pays for advice, not re-keying.
A business in Pomy can combine the models: internal day-to-day entry, monthly external supervision, closing and taxes with the specialist — fiduciary services splits very well.
Digitalising fiduciary services: what actually works
The classic digitalisation traps are avoidable: scanning without quality control (unreadable records), stacking disconnected tools (double entry in disguise), or neglecting access rights. One single flow from document to entry, with clear roles, beats five shiny apps.
Electronic archiving is fully recognised: Swiss bookkeeping regulation admits electronic retention of records provided integrity and readability are guaranteed for the 10 years of art. 958f CO. A paper binder is no longer an obligation — provided the archiving system is serious.
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 fiduciary services, two dates lock themselves in every year: the January salary declaration and the general meeting within six months — everything else is planned around them.
Pomy: what changes, what does not
Working with a fiduciary from Pomy no longer depends on geography: the documents of a business in Pomy are shared online, while the canton Vaud keeps its own deadlines for the tax return.
Pomy requires no special bookkeeping: the Code of Obligations applies at postal code 1405 as everywhere else, and a well-kept digital file transfers smoothly to any auditor in the canton.
Frequently asked questions
How much does fiduciary services cost in Pomy?
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.
Does MyFiducia.ai work for a business based in Pomy?
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 Pomy manages its documents, VAT and exports exactly as anywhere in Switzerland.
What is the difference between a limited and an ordinary audit?
The ordinary audit applies to companies exceeding, for two consecutive years, two of three thresholds: CHF 20 million balance sheet total, CHF 40 million revenue, 250 full-time positions. Others fall under the limited audit, and those with no more than ten full-time positions on annual average can opt out with all shareholders' consent. These federal thresholds do not depend on the registered seat — in Pomy as anywhere.
When is entry in the commercial register mandatory?
A Sàrl and an SA only come into existence with their registration. A sole proprietorship must register from CHF 100,000 of annual revenue; below that, registration stays voluntary but adds credibility and protects the business name. Registration goes through the canton's commercial register office — for Pomy too.
