Fiduciary services pricing in Kradolf-Schönenberg: the practical guide
Whether you run a Sàrl, an SA or a sole proprietorship in Kradolf-Schönenberg, fiduciary services 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 fiduciary services
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.
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.
Outsource fiduciary services or keep it in-house?
The scope goes down in writing: who enters data, who approves payments, who answers the tax office, who keeps the originals. Every “we'll see” at the start becomes a December misunderstanding — in Kradolf-Schönenberg as elsewhere.
For fiduciary services, the internal-external duo works when both sides see the same file: same entries, same documents, same deadlines. Misunderstandings are born from parallel copies.
Digitalising fiduciary services: what actually works
Access for the fiduciary, the auditor and employees is set by roles: view, enter, approve, close. Well-set rights protect the data and speed up collaboration.
For fiduciary services, migrating history must not block the start: begin on day one of the current financial year and import the history later if needed.

The professionals' trick: handle every deadline at D-30, not D-1. A VAT return prepared a month early leaves time to chase a missing document without penalty.
For fiduciary services, year-end is prepared in October: last invoices, investment decisions, provisions to assess — December is too late to act, January is for recording.
Kradolf-Schönenberg: what changes, what does not
Sole proprietorship, Sàrl or SA in Kradolf-Schönenberg: the AHV contact remains the competent compensation office, and taxes follow the scales of the canton Thurgau.
Federal deadlines do not move in Kradolf-Schönenberg: VAT within 60 days, salary declaration in January, 10-year record retention — postal code 9214 changes nothing about those rules, only the sender's address.
Frequently asked questions
What are the legal obligations for fiduciary services 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 Kradolf-Schönenberg: federal law applies.
Do you need a fiduciary for fiduciary services, 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 Kradolf-Schönenberg.
Which documents should be prepared for the year-end closing?
Bank and cash statements at the closing date, the inventory of stock and work in progress, final AHV/LPP/accident settlements, contracts signed or amended during the year, invoices straddling two years and the detail of accruals. With an up-to-date document archive, most of it is already there. The list is identical in Kradolf-Schönenberg: the CO dictates it, not the commune.
