Our services
Financial accounting, payroll, VAT, annual accounts and taxes from a single source, on a subscription at a fixed price or charged by time spent. Open each line to see what it includes.
Financial accounting, payroll, VAT, annual accounts and taxes. Everything from a single source.
On a subscription at a fixed price or charged by time spent, with exactly as much support as you need.
You are looked after reliably by the same person, who knows your business.
Clear prices, invoices you can follow and no hidden fees.
The VAT return is included in every tier of the accounting subscription. We file it on time: four times a year with the effective method, twice with the net tax rate method (Saldosteuersatz). Since 2025, an annual return with instalments during the year is possible on request, provided turnover does not exceed CHF 5,005,000 (Art. 35 of the VAT Act, MWSTG). Once a year, we reconcile turnover with the returns filed, as the law requires. Errors found in the process are corrected at the latest in the return for the period in which the 180th day after the end of the financial year falls (Art. 72 of the VAT Act, MWSTG).
If you keep the accounts yourself, we check your return before it is filed, charged by time spent. Foreign companies that are liable for VAT in Switzerland can use our service as a VAT representative.
We prepare your company’s tax return in coordination with the annual accounts, so that the two match. It is included in the accounting subscription for GmbH and AG. If you keep the accounts yourself, we prepare it together with the annual accounts, from CHF 2,950 for both.
In the canton of Zurich, legal entities file it by 30 September. Until that date, an extension to 30 November can be requested online. We file the request when it becomes necessary and let you know beforehand.
Many of our clients come from Dübendorf, Wangen-Brüttisellen, Volketswil, Schwerzenbach, Fällanden, Greifensee, Uster, Wallisellen and Dietlikon, in other words from the Glatt valley and the Zurich Oberland. There is a practical reason for this: anyone who wants to get to know us can be here in 20 minutes, there is parking, and the public transport stop is close by. When you switch from another accountant, you can also simply drop off a box.
The second reason is a professional one: compensation offices (Ausgleichskassen), tax offices, the commercial register (Handelsregister) and tax-at-source rates are regulated by the cantons. Zurich is a home game for us: we deal with the same forms, deadlines and contacts every day. It simply takes some familiarisation, which is part of the work and does not appear on your invoice.
And the part that makes no difference is the ongoing work. Receipts arrive digitally, the accounting runs in the cloud, and we clarify questions by phone or video. Whether your business is in Uster or in Bern does not change any of that.

Individual services
Payroll is already included in the subscription. Companies without a registered office in Switzerland will find everything about our service as a VAT representative on its own page.
We can name a fixed price where we know the effort involved. That is the case with ongoing bookkeeping: we see the volume of receipts, the number of employees and the processes, and the amount is based on these.
It is different when we take over accounts that we do not know yet: for a review, for annual accounts based on someone else’s groundwork or when clearing up old backlogs. How much needs to be corrected there only becomes clear when you look. For such work and for one-off assignments, we charge by time spent. You find out beforehand roughly what to expect, and afterwards you receive a timesheet that shows where the time went.

Working together
Three steps lead from the initial meeting to ongoing operation. We collect the records from your previous accountant, and you give us access to your accounts; in bexio, that is a single tick box.
We look at your situation: volume of receipts, software, employees and what you currently do yourself. Afterwards, you receive a quote with a clearly defined scope of services.
We collect the records from your previous accountant, check the opening balance sheet and set up the handover of receipts so that nothing is recorded twice.
We post monthly or quarterly, reconcile the accounts and get in touch when something stands out. You can view your figures at any time.
The initial meeting
The initial meeting is free and without obligation. Together we look at where your business loses time today and which of that work we can take on. Afterwards, you know where you stand.
Who would you like to talk to?
30 minutes, without obligation, by video or at our office in Dübendorf. Both of them hold the initial meeting personally.

Questions and answers
Financial accounting, receipt processing, bank reconciliation, supplier invoices and payment runs, payroll, VAT, annual accounts under the Swiss Code of Obligations and your company’s tax return. On top of that comes advice on everything that arises from it.
The subscription is worthwhile if you have receipts regularly and want to hand over the administration completely. There, we know the effort and can offer it at a fixed price. We charge by time spent if you only need individual tasks or if we cannot see in advance what lies ahead, for example with a review of your accounts, with annual accounts based on someone else’s groundwork or when cleaning up previous years.
The accounting subscription starts at CHF 290 per month. In that case, we post quarterly and charge CHF 870 per quarter. Posted monthly, it starts at CHF 590 and includes bookkeeping, the VAT return, the annual financial statements, the tax return and the software licence. We base the exact amount on the volume of receipts and the number of employees. The price calculator asks for this in five steps and sends you a quote without obligation as a PDF. We charge individual tasks by time spent from CHF 120 per hour, and advice and CFO services from CHF 180 per hour, in each case excluding VAT.
Because before the first look, we do not know how cleanly the entries have been made. A well-kept year is reviewed quickly, a patchy one costs many times as much in corrections. Naming a fixed price without knowing this would mean either guessing or setting it too high as a precaution. Instead, we take a look first, tell you what we find, and you decide afterwards.
No. Our office is in Dübendorf, and many of our clients come from Zurich and the Zurich Oberland. However, we can look after you from anywhere in Switzerland, because we work together digitally. If you would like to meet us in person, you are always welcome in Dübendorf.
No. You keep your ERP or industry software and continue to write your invoices there. We connect our accounting to it. If you do not have a solution yet, we advise you on the choice.
Digitally: take a photo, forward them or upload them. Our software reads the receipts with AI, and we check and correct them. You do not need to drop off a folder.
Yes. The cleanest break is the annual closing, but it also works in the middle of the year, ideally at the end of a quarter, when the VAT return has been completed. We take over the opening balance sheet, reconcile the open items and collect the records from your previous accountant. For you, the effort remains small.
You have a dedicated contact person and can reach us Monday to Friday from 9 am to 6 pm on +41 44 520 02 90 or by email. As a rule, we get back to you within one working day.
The initial meeting takes 30 minutes and is free of charge and without obligation. We look at your situation: volume of receipts, software, employees and what you currently do yourself. Then we tell you what we see, even if the answer is that we are not the right firm for you. If it is a good fit, you then receive a quote with a clearly defined scope of services.
