2026 Zurich source-tax payroll · resident foreign employees subject to withholding, no children, ages 25–63, one full-time employer throughout the year. Includes a configurable BVG/accident-insurance scenario.

Tax rates come directly from the locally bundled official 2026 Zurich tables, including church tax where selected. AHV/IV/EO and ALV are automatic. BVG uses the statutory coordinated salary; the minimum scenario assumes half the statutory age-based savings credit is employee-funded. This is an assumption, not a universal employee contribution rule. The default 1% NBU premium is illustrative: replace it and the BVG risk/admin rate with your employer's contractual rates (zero only if employer-funded). Custom savings rate must use the same statutory coordinated-salary basis; enhanced plans with a different insured salary are not supported. Bonus is included in insured annual pension salary; the 13th salary is paid in December. No KTG deduction or private health premium is included. Results are withholding, not ordinary/final Swiss tax; mandatory subsequent assessment may apply, including at CHF 120,000 annual gross.
