When The Swatch Group AG (Swiss Domiciled Company) pays a dividend of CHF 1000 – it immediately gets taxed at the Swiss Statutory Tax Rate of 35% (CHF 350) irrespective of who the shareholder is.
However due to a Double Tax Agreement between Switzerland and various other countries, foreign residents are entitled to the preferential Double Tax Agreement Rate of 15% (CHF 150).
Therefore, the differential of CHF 200 (CHF 350 – CHF 150) is recoverable in its entirety, but is retained by the Foreign Tax Office until all the complex administrative procedures and filing requirements are met.
