Sintesi Omnilex

The Spezialverwaltungsgericht, Tax Division, partly upheld the taxpayers’ appeal in a 2008 tax matter. It held that administration costs for movable private assets are deductible under § 39 Abs. 1 StG and that legal fees incurred to secure assets may also qualify as deductible asset management costs. As a result, the taxpayers’ taxable income for 2008 was reduced by CHF 82,934, from CHF 178,751 to CHF 95,817.

§ 39 Abs. 1 StG; deductibility of asset management costs for movable private assets and legal fees incurred to secure assets. Administration costs for movable private assets are deductible if they are borne by third parties and not refundable or creditable foreign withholding taxes. Legal fees may qualify as deductible asset management costs when they are incurred to safeguard assets. Where deductible and non-deductible elements are not clearly separated, the admissibility of the deduction must be assessed on the basis of the circumstances and the applicable cantonal practice (consid. 6.2 ff.).
