GIVING SOLUTIONS FOR SWISS/US TAXpayers
Through our partner, Swiss American Giving, U.S. citizens earning in Switzerland can make charitable donations that provide tax deductions in both Switzerland and the United States. As the first and only dual-qualified charity in Switzerland, Swiss American Giving maximizes the tax efficiency and impact of charitable giving.
HOW IT WORKS
We streamline the process, making it easy for you to support your favorite charities worldwide. Here’s how:
1
Donate to Swiss American Giving
Make a donation to Swiss American Giving, the dual-qualified charity in both the U.S. and Switzerland.
2
Receive Dual Tax Receipts
After your donation is processed, you’ll receive two receipts: a Swiss tax receipt for claiming deductions on your Swiss tax return and a U.S. tax receipt for deductions on your U.S. tax return.
3
Claim Your Tax Deductions
Use the Swiss receipt to reduce your taxable income based on cantonal regulations and the U.S. receipt to deduct the donation from your adjusted gross income on your federal tax return.
Secure, Fast, and Affordable Solutions
Swiss American Giving offers secure, efficient, and cost-effective solutions tailored to your unique needs. Our services comply with both U.S. and Swiss tax laws, helping you maximize the impact of your charitable giving with ease.
A 3% contribution assessment (subject to SFr 150 minimum) is applied on individual donations and there is a 1% grant assessment (subject to SFr 300 minimum) for the onward grants to your recommended charity.
