withholding tax
In Switzerland, this source tax is imposed at the current rate of 35% on domestic income from capital gains and lottery winnings in excess of CHF 50. Tax payments can be reclaimed by persons filing Swiss federal tax returns or credited against cantonal tax liabilities. Individuals and companies domiciled abroad may claim a refund of Swiss withholding tax under double taxation treaties concluded between their country of domicile and Switzerland.
