Philipp Roth
According to the Federal Tax Administration's (FTA) communication of 17 February 2020, autonomous departments of the same community may merge to form a single tax entity.
It is possible to form several mergers or to combine all departments into a single taxable entity (Art. 12 para. 2 MWSTG). With regard to the corporate tax, only the merger is then subject to the tax (art. 70 para. 2 RTVA) and not the individual members. The corporate tax rate is determined on the basis of the cumulative total turnover of the merger (art. 70 para. 3 RTVA). Applications for the formation of mergers must be submitted by the end of February.
The communication is available here.
