Financial dashboard for agencies in Seltisberg: the practical guide

Between VAT, social contributions and the year-end close, a Swiss SME juggles dozens of deadlines a year. This page focuses on financial dashboard in Seltisberg: what the law requires, what can be automated, and when to delegate.

The Swiss legal frame for financial dashboard

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 law also settles the form: accounts may be kept in a national language or in English, on paper or electronically (art. 957a para. 5 CO). That pragmatism lets financial dashboard run entirely on digital tools — no paper binder is required.

Outsource financial dashboard 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.

For financial dashboard, a quarterly 30-minute check-in with the fiduciary beats an annual marathon: questions get handled while they are small.

Year-end closing: how the mechanics work

Depreciation follows rates accepted by tax practice (property, machinery, IT): staying within those ranges avoids reassessments. Exceeding them is justified — and documented, in Seltisberg as anywhere.

A company in Seltisberg that presents clean, punctual annual accounts gains credibility — with its bank, its suppliers and the tax administration.

Digitalising financial dashboard: 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 Seltisberg as everywhere.

Migrate in stages: supplier invoices first (high volume, immediate gain), then receivables with the QR-bill, finally payroll and the closing. At each stage, comparing one month before/after is enough to prove the gain — no theoretical promises needed.

Seltisberg: what changes, what does not

Sole proprietorship, Sàrl or SA in Seltisberg: the AHV contact remains the competent compensation office, and taxes follow the scales of the canton Basel-Country.

For a business in Seltisberg, that means VAT returns identical to anywhere in Switzerland, but a tax return and family allowances governed by the canton Basel-Country.

Frequently asked questions

Does MyFiducia.ai work for a business based in Seltisberg?

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 Seltisberg manages its documents, VAT and exports exactly as anywhere in Switzerland.

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 Seltisberg, family allowances follow the canton's rates.

Do you need a fiduciary for financial dashboard, 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 Seltisberg.

How much does financial dashboard cost in Seltisberg?

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.
