LPP pension reporting alternatives in Duillier: the practical guide

Whether you run a Sàrl, an SA or a sole proprietorship in Duillier, LPP pension reporting eventually lands on your desk. Here are the practical reference points — legal basis, deadlines and common pitfalls — to decide with a clear head.

The Swiss legal frame for LPP pension reporting

In Switzerland, the duty to keep accounts stems from art. 957 ff. of the Code of Obligations. Legal entities (Sàrl, SA) and sole proprietorships with at least CHF 500,000 in revenue keep full accounts: balance sheet, income statement and notes. Below that threshold, a simplified record of income, expenses and assets is sufficient.

Art. 957a CO requires complete, truthful and systematic recording of transactions, each entry backed by a supporting document. For LPP pension reporting, that means in practice: no movement without a receipt, and an audit trail that can be reconstructed at any time — including during a VAT or AHV inspection.

Outsource LPP pension reporting or keep it in-house?

Responsibility stays with the client: the fiduciary executes with care, but the signed accounts bind the company. Understanding what you sign is not optional.

A business in Duillier can combine the models: internal day-to-day entry, monthly external supervision, closing and taxes with the specialist — LPP pension reporting splits very well.

Salaries and social contributions: the rates to know

Family allowances are financed by the employer through a cantonal compensation fund — rates and amounts vary from canton to canton, including in Duillier. They come on top of the federal social insurances and appear on every payslip.

For LPP pension reporting, the winning mechanics are simple: one single payroll database (salaries, rates, allowances), monthly slips generated from it, and an annual declaration that is little more than a sum. Painful catch-up invoices almost always stem from scattered data.

A Swiss SME's accounting calendar

January: salary declaration to the compensation office and salary certificates. End of February, May, August, November: quarterly VAT returns (effective method), each to be filed and paid within 60 days after the quarter ends. Within six months of year-end: approved annual accounts. Then: the tax return under cantonal deadlines, with extensions possible.

For LPP pension reporting, year-end is prepared in October: last invoices, investment decisions, provisions to assess — December is too late to act, January is for recording.

Duillier: what changes, what does not

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

For a business in Duillier, that means VAT returns identical to anywhere in Switzerland, but a tax return and family allowances governed by the canton Vaud.

Frequently asked questions

Which social contributions does a Swiss employer pay?

AHV/IV/APG: 5.3% employer share (the same is withheld from the employee); unemployment insurance: 1.1% each up to CHF 148,200 a year; occupational pension (LPP) by age and plan (employer at least 50%); occupational accident insurance paid by the employer; family allowances by canton. For an employer in Duillier, family allowances follow the canton's rates.

Can LPP pension reporting be automated with AI?

Largely, yes: automatic document reading, posting suggestions, bank reconciliation via QR references and VAT exports. Human approval remains essential — AI prepares, the professional checks. That is exactly how MyFiducia.ai approaches LPP pension reporting.

How much does LPP pension reporting cost in Duillier?

It depends on document volume, the number of salaries and VAT complexity — no serious figure can be quoted without examining the file. Two levers cut the bill everywhere: digitised, well-filed receipts and software that prepares entries instead of having them re-keyed.

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 Duillier: the CO dictates it, not the commune.
