Lowering the corporation tax by up to 11%<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of recent, the corporation tax in the city of Basel is 13% (including federal taxes). Companies\nthat perform research and development can achieve a reduction of up to 11% due\nto Patent Box deductions. The tax rate on capital recently dropped to one per\nthousand. This was made possible by 78.8% of voters, who voted on 10 February in\nfavour of the so-called Basel Compromise for corporate taxation. The governing\ncouncil of Basel put the changes into effect retroactively as of 1 January\n2019. Due to the adoption of the tax reform, the canton is expecting relief in the\nhundreds of millions of francs for companies and shareholders and in the amount\nof 150 million francs for the general population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Preparation for OASI (AHV) tax reform at the\nfederal level <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The status companies\naffected by the tax reform are of great fiscal and economic importance for the\ncity of Basel, as they contribute 60% of cantonal revenue from corporation tax\nand tax on capital with 496 million francs and 32,000 full-time employees. Therefore,\nit is no wonder that the canton adopted the compromise with an overwhelming\nmajority of 78.8%. The changes were made at the federal level in preparation\nfor the AHV tax reform proposal, which will be voted on by the electorate on 19\nMay. The intention of this is that new, internationally prevalent taxation\nmeasures will be introduced, wherein the cantons will retain financial leeway. As\nsocio-political compensation, the funds for the OASI and the minimum amounts\nfor family allowances will be increased. If the OASI tax reform is adopted, the\ncantons will receive additional funds from the federal government derived from\ndirect federal tax, which are included in the Basel Compromise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
