    Hi,

    They are plannig to apply some averaging:

    On 1 January 2023, most of the provisions of the
    Revised Company Law will come into force. The
    resulting changes in tax law now make it clear
    that the functional currency is decisive for
    tax purposes.

    In addition, it is now stated that the taxable profit
    in Swiss francs is to be determined at the average
    (selling) exchange rate of the relevant financial year
    and the taxable capital in Swiss francs at the (selling)
    exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date.

    As a result, balance sheet items translated at historical
    rates in the annual financial statements presented in
    Swiss francs become irrelevant. While there was
    previously a certain degree of discretion in the exchange
    rates used, the exchange rates published by the
    Federal Tax Administration will now be binding.

    So basically you have two exchanges rates one
    for income, and one for substance.

    Swiss bank or a Swiss National bank is allowed
    to use any currency. You can even file a Tax
    declaration in any currency now.

    They simply don't care anymore about currency.
    I know EUR is possible, maybe BTC is also possible?
    You can use anything that has a market value

    each end of year? See also:
