The interest rates are now uniformly regulated in the FDF Ordinance on Interest Rates for Late Payment and Remuneration of Taxes and Levies (FDF Interest Rate Ordinance).
The FDF Interest Rate Ordinance provides for the following interest rates, which will now be reviewed annually:
Calendar years from |
Default interest (in %) |
Refund interest (in %) |
Compensation interest on voluntary advance payments |
2024 |
4,75 |
4,75 |
1,25 |
If payment of the tax, interest and costs by the prescribed payment deadline would cause considerable hardship, the FTA may agree with the taxpayer to extend the payment deadline or to pay by instalments.
For a possible extension of the deadline, please use the form Submit a proposal for a payment plan. It is advisable to do this as early as possible so that any reminders and collection measures can be prevented. The agreement can be made dependent on an appropriate security deposit.
The agreement lapses if the preconditions for it cease to apply or the conditions to which it is attached are not fulfilled.
No payment facilities may be agreed after the initiation of debt enforcement proceedings.
The period granted does not postpone the ordinary expiry and the interest on arrears is owed in any case.
If the taxpayer fails to pay the tax due or makes a manifestly insufficient payment despite a prior reminder, the FTA initiates debt collection proceedings for the tax due.
No. Because withholding tax is a self-assessment tax, the declaration must be submitted to the FTA and the payment to the FTA must be made spontaneously and without the company being prompted to do so.
Payments of withholding tax, stamp duty and additional tax retention are to be made exclusively to the following accounts:
