Add employee's withholding tax/tax at source
Not every employee requires withholding tax. Only those employees which are not Swiss Citizen or do not hold a C permit will be subject to withholding tax.
There are scenarios where the employee is not a Swiss Citizen or does not hold a C permit but his Wife or Husband is a Swiss citizen. In this scenario, the employee is not subject to withholding tax. To set the immigration permit for the employee please visit
