Typical challenges

What matters most in IT & freelancers

01

Self-employment recognition (AHV/OASI)

The OASI office (AHV) must recognise you as genuinely self-employed. Relying on one main client can get you reclassified as employed, with serious consequences.

02

Sole proprietorship vs. GmbH

A sole proprietorship is simple but means personal liability; a GmbH adds protection and structure. The right choice depends on income, risk and clients.

03

International clients and VAT

Services to clients abroad follow special VAT place-of-supply rules. Invoicing them correctly avoids both double taxation and missed liabilities.

04

Irregular income, pension and home office

Income swings month to month, your pension is your own responsibility, and home-office and equipment costs are deductible if documented properly.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ, IT & freelancers

01

How do I get recognised as self-employed?

The OASI office checks that you work for several clients, carry your own business risk and appear independent. We prepare the application so it's accepted.

02

Do I charge VAT to clients abroad?

Many cross-border services are not subject to Swiss VAT, but the rules depend on the client and service type. We make sure your invoices apply them correctly.
