Whether you run a Sàrl, an SA or a sole proprietorship in Corcelles-près-Concise, SME chart of accounts 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 SME chart of accounts
For an owner in Corcelles-près-Concise, the question is never “do we need accounts?” but “at what level of detail?”. The CO sets the floor; the bank, the tax office and the shareholders set the rest.

Outsource SME chart of accounts or keep it in-house?

For SME chart of accounts, a few well-chosen analytical accounts (by activity, by site) beat a forest of sub-accounts nobody ever reads.

Frequently asked questions
How long must records related to SME chart of accounts be kept?
Ten years from the end of the financial year concerned (art. 958f CO). Electronic retention is permitted if the integrity and readability of the records are guaranteed — a serious digital archive validly replaces paper binders. A business in Corcelles-près-Concise can therefore archive fully digitally.
Can SME chart of accounts 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 SME chart of accounts.
How much does SME chart of accounts cost in Corcelles-près-Concise?
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.
When must a business register for VAT?
As soon as its worldwide annual turnover reaches CHF 100,000 (CHF 250,000 for non-profit sports or cultural associations). Below that, voluntary registration remains possible and often makes sense to reclaim input VAT on investments. The threshold is federal: it applies in Corcelles-près-Concise as everywhere in Switzerland.
