Hello guys

I try to fill in my first Swiss tax declaration (Zurich)🤦‍♂️. I have a bunch of documents in different languages (English, French, Spanish). I hope, I don’t need to translate and to certify all of them in German. What are your experiences?

Regards,
Hernandez

    Take it easy Hernandez.

    No need to officially translate. Just highlight and note the most important information on each document to make it simpler for the tax office to understand the document. Let’s say, if it’s you bought a house in Spain, highlight and translate the address, date, your name in the purchase contract and the purchase price.
    That’s all. You can make all notes yourself. If you don’t speak German, make them in English. The Swiss tax office does speak it.

    Good luck with the tax return 😁

        Hi

        Hernandez I disagree with Peters.
        Sometimes it is better to translate the main documents.
        Last year some of my documents in Polish were not accepted by the tax office. So I had to translate them urgently and send within 30 days.
        Hope this doesn`t happen with you.

        All the best.
