reclaimer - a step ahead with automated forms

Swiss FTA Form 85 via M2M-process now live!

Zürich, Jun 2021

With the most modern withholding tax software on the market, the reclaimer provides a Machine-to-Machine (M2M) interface to the Federal Tax Administration (FTA) for Form 85. Banks and service providers are ahead on the market for the digitalisation of withholding taxes with the reclaimer.

As one of the first software solutions, reclaimer has succeeded in submitting automated withholding tax forms to the Federal Tax Administration (FTA) using the M2M procedure. Together with our pilot customer, a leading Swiss bank, we have been able to successfully put this function into production. This achievement makes us proud and we would like to take this opportunity to thank all the bank and FTA staff involved and our reclaimer team.

As of January 1^st, 2020, withholding tax claims for German investors who have invested in Swiss securities can only be reclaimed digitally from the FTA. The reclaimer provides a high degree of software automation. The industrialisation of this complex process allows banks and service providers a mass-application in the shortest possible time. Additionally, you are compliant with the Swiss tax authorities and avoid errors with this process automation. A solution that pays off quickly in your bank and at the same time keeps your customers happy, due to a fast and highly efficient refund of withholding taxes.
