Delegate, digitalise or do it all yourself? Around SME chart of accounts in Leuzigen, 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 SME chart of accounts

AHV audits and VAT audits follow the same logic: start from the documents, trace to the entries, check consistency. A business in Leuzigen with a clean audit trail sails through these exercises.

A well-structured SME chart of accounts

For SME chart of accounts, the right granularity is decisive: enough accounts to steer the business (margins by activity, expenses by nature), few enough that every entry finds its place without hesitation. The VAT accounts (input VAT, VAT due) deserve special care — they are the basis of the annual reconciliation.

Frequently asked questions

Do you need a fiduciary for SME chart of accounts, or can you do it yourself?

Both are defensible. Below CHF 500,000 of revenue, a sole proprietorship may keep simplified accounts itself.
