From May 2026, it is not the Swiss VAT rate that is changing, but the way to access the online VAT return. The FTA will discontinue the “VAT Return easy” service. After that, VAT returns will only be submitted via “VAT Return pro” in myESTV / myAFC.

In addition, registration and login via AGOV will become mandatory from 31 October 2026. CH-Login will be discontinued at the end of 2027.

In practical terms:
It is better to prepare early:
set up your AGOV access once, activate myESTV, and use VAT Return pro for future filing periods.

AGOV login:
There are two main options:

• AGOV access app on your smartphone
• FIDO2 security key (USB)
  (from around CHF 19 at Galaxus.ch)

Through your online account, you can also manage your VAT more effectively in case of difficulties and avoid reminders or debt enforcement proceedings.

a) Request a deadline extension online
If you need more time to submit your VAT return, you should request an extension online as quickly as possible.
A code sent by post can then be entered in your account.

b) Request an instalment payment plan online
If needed, you can also apply online for payment by instalments / a payment plan.

Important:
If you act early instead of waiting and reacting too late, you can avoid loss of time, unnecessary effort, and extra costs.

Dear Entrepreneur,

Since January 1, 2025, the Swiss Federal Debt Enforcement and Bankruptcy Act (LP / SchKG, Art. 43) has been amended.
Social and tax obligations (AVS / AHV, LPP / BVG, VAT, taxes, etc.) can now directly trigger bankruptcy proceedings, even for minor payment delays.

A single late payment can be enough to bring down your company.
Company directors can be held personally liable if social contributions are not paid.
