Accounting records archiving for e-commerce in Felben-Wellhausen explained simply

Accounting records archiving for e-commerce in Felben-Wellhausen rests on three pillars: federal law that applies across Switzerland, cantonal deadlines worth knowing, and tools that eliminate re-keying. This guide puts it all in order, fact by fact.

Digitalising accounting records archiving: what actually works

Security is part of digitalisation: named access, tested backups, encryption of sensitive data. A digital accounting file is protected like a safe — because it is one.

For accounting records archiving, migrating history must not block the start: begin on day one of the current financial year and import the history later if needed.

Outsource accounting records archiving or keep it in-house?

A good test before choosing: ask the fiduciary HOW it wants to receive the documents. A precise answer (formats, frequency, platform) says more than any brochure — including in Felben-Wellhausen.

Changing fiduciary is not a drama: the accounting data belongs to the company, and a clean export (entries, chart of accounts, linked documents) allows a transition at year-end. A provider who locks in a client's data says a lot about how it works.

QR-bills and friction-free collections

Clear payment terms, a visible due date, exact details: half of late payments come from ambiguous invoices, not bad payers — the finding holds in Felben-Wellhausen too.

For accounting records archiving, the share of collections matched automatically is a metric worth watching: when it drops, it is almost always a matter of misused references.

The Swiss legal frame for accounting records archiving

Swiss accounting law has been unified in the Code of Obligations since 2013: the same bookkeeping rules (art. 957a CO) and retention rules (art. 958f CO — 10 years for books, vouchers and reports) apply regardless of legal form. Accounting records archiving sits squarely within this frame, including for companies based in Felben-Wellhausen.

For accounting records archiving, the classic early mistake remains mixing private and business: a dedicated bank account and documented private withdrawals eliminate half the discussions with the tax office.

Felben-Wellhausen: what changes, what does not

Working with a fiduciary from Felben-Wellhausen no longer depends on geography: the documents of a business in Felben-Wellhausen are shared online, while the canton Thurgau keeps its own deadlines for the tax return.

Federal deadlines do not move in Felben-Wellhausen: VAT within 60 days, salary declaration in January, 10-year record retention — postal code 8552 changes nothing about those rules, only the sender's address.

Frequently asked questions

Does MyFiducia.ai work for a business based in Felben-Wellhausen?

Yes: the platform runs online, the rules applied are federal (VAT, CO, AHV), and the file can be shared with any fiduciary. A business in Felben-Wellhausen manages its documents, VAT and exports exactly as anywhere in Switzerland.

Which documents should be prepared for the year-end closing?

Bank and cash statements at the closing date, the inventory of stock and work in progress, final AHV/LPP/accident settlements, contracts signed or amended during the year, invoices straddling two years and the detail of accruals. With an up-to-date document archive, most of it is already there. The list is identical in Felben-Wellhausen: the CO dictates it, not the commune.

What are the current Swiss VAT rates?

Since 1 January 2024: 8.1% (standard), 2.6% (reduced — for example food and medicines) and 3.8% (accommodation). Returns must be filed and paid within 60 days after the period ends (quarterly under the effective method, semi-annually under the net tax rate method). These federal rates apply unchanged in Felben-Wellhausen.

Do you need a fiduciary for accounting records archiving, or can you do it yourself?

Both are defensible. Below CHF 500,000 of revenue, a sole proprietorship may keep simplified accounts itself. As soon as payroll, VAT and a closing with tax stakes are involved, professional support prevents mistakes that cost more than the fees. With a shared platform, the fiduciary does not even need to be in Felben-Wellhausen.
