You can pay conveniently with TWINT, Mastercard or Visa.

Our payment provider Payrexx is a Swiss company, processes your payment securely and does not store any payment data.

Your tax return will be completed and submitted for you in 14 days, provided everything has been sent to us correctly. You will then receive a copy of your tax return by e-mail.

We also offer an express service, which means that your tax return will be processed in 1-4 business days.

If documents or information are missing, the waiting time may be extended accordingly.

Our tax return service is available in 17 cantons!

Our service is not available in the following cantons:

Ticino, Waadt, Neuenburg, Geneva, Jura, Glarus, Appenzell Innerrhoden, Appenzell Ausserrhoden, Graubünden

Yes, of course. Ajooda is the number one digital tax platform in Switzerland – taxes are our business!

At all times we make sure that there are enough tax experts available to complete your tax declaration. If we have company vacations, you will be notified with a pop-up message on our website.

If you have a more “complicated” tax situation, e.g. if you are a cross-border commuter, have a special family or work situation, a lot of properties or investments, then you can describe your situation more precisely in the comments box in our tax form or send us an additional e-mail.

However, this is not always necessary, as most of the information is self-explanatory once all required documents have been uploaded and questions have been answered in our form.

If we have any questions for you, we will get back to you.

However, if your tax return is very complex, we do of course also offer onboarding. Please contact us regarding this.

Yes. All you need to do is submit an application for subsequent ordinary assessment (NOV) to the tax office of your canton until 31.3 if it’s your first tax return in switzerland.

Simply enter your canton + NOV in the search on Google and follow the instructions (the form only needs to be requested once, in subsequent years you will receive everything automatically).

You will receive the tax document from the tax office with the access code after a few weeks. Please do not use this access code to log in into your tax return, otherwise a new code must be requested.

You then upload this tax document with all other documents here in our tax form.

If you have bills that you paid yourself and not your health insurance (e.g. dentist, special massages, therapies etc.) you can deduct these payments from your tax, but only those amounts that are above 5% of your net income.

Example 1:

You earn CHF 120,000 net/year and can claim CHF 20’000 in tax deductions. You have paid CHF 3,000 in medical expenses yourself. Since the expenses are less than 5% of your net salary (CHF 5’000), you cannot deduct anything.

Example 2:

Same scenario as above but you have paid CHF 6,000 in medical expenses yourself. Since the expenses are more than 5% of the net salary (CHF 5,000), you can deduct the difference, which is CHF 1,000.

If you still submit your invoices to us and the deductions are less than 5% of the net salary, we will not make the deduction, since the deduction is 0 anyway (exception: Basel).

The experienced tax advisors at ajooda can take advantage of the maximum leeway offered by the tax authorities, which is why you often end up paying less tax with ajooda than if you complete the tax return yourself.

What we cannot influence, however, is whether you save more tax with the tax return than if you are taxed at source.
Over 85% of clients pay less tax or receive a tax refund if they switch to a tax return, but in 10-15% of cases it is more worthwhile to remain withholding taxed (if you are not automatically reassessed based on your income).

If you are unsure whether it is worth switching to ordinary taxation, we offer calculations so that you can be sure. Please feel free to ask us about this service.

This is very individual.

It usually takes up to 3 months.

If this is your first tax return, it can often take 6-12 months.

However, there are also cantons, such as the canton Zurich, where processing can often take 12-24 months.

ajooda has no influence on the processing speed of the tax office.

In almost all cantons, No, you don’t need to print out anything.

ajooda already does everything for you. We will send your tax declaration directly to the tax office.

After completion you’ll receive an E-Mail with a copy of your tax return.

However, in some cantons (e.g. Bern), after we complete your tax return, you must sign a document and send to the tax authorities.
