- Switzerland is seeking feedback on two major VAT law amendments.
- The first proposal lowers the threshold for treating bundled services as a single supply from 70% to 55%, easing administrative burdens, especially for tourism packages.
- The second proposal expands VAT obligations for platforms to include electronic services, ensuring VAT is collected on downloads and streaming, but excluding online booking of accommodation and transport.
- A planned provision allowing taxpayers to choose the business year as their tax period will be withdrawn due to complexity and low demand.
- Feedback on these proposals is open until March 20, 2026.
