Every figure the statement will carry, before anything is charged.

What you can reclaim

CHF 120.50

A credit against your Swiss tax bill, not a cash refund: it offsets the Swiss tax due on this income, is capped at that amount, and is granted after your assessment. Some income could not be counted, so the real figure is at least this.

This statement recovers at least CHF 120.50 and costs CHF 19.

Gross investment income

All dividends and interest for the year, in francs, before any tax was taken.

CHF 1'333.76
Swiss withholding tax, refundable

The 35% Verrechnungssteuer on Swiss payments. It comes back in full through your ordinary tax return, not through the DA-1.

CHF 159.60
Foreign tax withheld

What foreign states kept before the payments reached you.

CHF 120.50
Creditable on a DA-1

The part of that foreign tax Switzerland credits against your own tax bill, via the DA-1. Capped at the treaty rate per country.

CHF 120.50

Your statement carries these figures into your cantonal software, which builds the DA-1 sheet from them — one row per security, the credit beside each.

  • accumulating fund — deemed income added from the official list

    An accumulating fund reinvests its income instead of paying it out. Switzerland taxes that reinvested income as if it had been paid to you; the official price list carries the amount per unit, and it is added here on your year-end holding. If you bought part of the holding after the reinvestment date, the taxable amount is lower.

Things you should know about your file

1 Deemed income on an accumulating fund
  • Deemed income on an accumulating fund: 1

    An accumulating fund reinvests its income instead of paying it out. Switzerland taxes that reinvested income as if it had been paid to you; the official price list carries the amount per unit, and it is added here on your year-end holding. If you bought part of the holding after the reinvestment date, the taxable amount is lower.

1 of the notes are about one security each. Each sits on that security's row under What will be in your statement above, behind the "i" — open that section to read them.

Income not counted towards the DA-1 reclaim

2 Swiss 2 — still declared as income, just no credit
By reason Still declared as income, just no foreign-tax credit. Swiss withholding comes back in full through the ordinary Wertschriftenverzeichnis. Tax withheld on a payment in lieu is lost: the shares were on loan, Switzerland does not treat the payment as a dividend and the source state keeps the tax (ESTV circular 13). It is deductible from income under Art. 32 Abs. 1 DBG instead, on the asset-management costs line of the return. Gross figures are in CHF at the official rate.
Reason Gross income Tax withheld Payments Securities

2 payments, one by one Grouped by reason, then by date. The number is the security's row under “What will be in your statement” above; a payment without one is from a security not held at 31 December. The reasons are explained below the table.

Swiss withholding tax is refunded in full through the ordinary Wertschriftenverzeichnis, not through a DA-1. Claiming it here would overstate your reclaim.
