Accounting Software for the Sole Proprietorship Legal Form
Accounting that matches your legal structure, from CHF 120 per year
← Back to overviewAs a sole proprietorship, your legal structure directly determines your bookkeeping obligations. As long as your annual turnover stays under CHF 500,000, Swiss law allows you to keep simplified accounting – an income-and-expenditure statement, without a balance sheet or double-entry bookkeeping. Only above that threshold does full commercial bookkeeping become mandatory.
Effizo is built exactly for this legal form: software that applies the simplified method your sole proprietorship is entitled to, without unnecessary complexity.
What the sole proprietorship legal form means for your accounting
- Turnover under CHF 500,000: simplified accounting (income and expenditure) is sufficient
- No separate legal entity: you and your business are one unit for accounting purposes
- VAT liability already starts at CHF 100,000 turnover, independent of the simplified-accounting threshold
- No balance sheet or income statement required as long as the CHF 500,000 threshold isn't reached
How Effizo adapts to your sole proprietorship
Effizo records your income and expenses using the simplified method, automatically calculates your VAT if you're liable, and prepares the documents you need for your tax return. You don't need accounting knowledge to keep books that meet exactly what the law requires from a sole proprietorship under CHF 500,000 turnover.
