Form tested
Own online form instead of the federal one
Schwyz does not use the federal form but its own form at formulare.aksz.ch. It asks for your own AHV number, the start of employment, the total annual gross wage and the type of work, and the bank details are optional. You report your employee's name and details only later, with the wage declaration.

Office documents
«Bestätigung der bezahlten Steuern» for the tax return
In the simplified procedure you issue no salary certificate and do not settle the withholding tax separately. After the settlement, your employee receives a «Bestätigung der bezahlten Steuern» from the compensation office. She attaches it to her tax return.

A reduction is possible, not guaranteed
According to the leaflet, a reduction of the administrative fee is possible for employers who file electronically through AHVeasy and meet their reporting and payment duties without fault. Anyone who is repeatedly late pays the maximum rate. Clino therefore calculates with the full rate.
