Tax consulting for Switzerland–Italy cross-border workers

Tax consulting for cross-border workers: Switzerland–Italy tax optimisation, Italian tax return and choosing the tax regime under the new 2026 agreement.

The tax consulting service is designed for cross-border workers who want to discuss taxation, pensions, and fiscal topics in the Swiss-Italian cross-border context. The sessions are informational and follow the areas listed below.

Key areas include: Italian tax returns for Swiss income, choosing the tax regime (old vs new cross-border workers), calculating and applying the €10,000 exemption, optimising foreign tax credits (Art. 165 TUIR), AVS/LPP/pillar 3a pension planning, and choosing between LAMal and NHS.

Each consultation starts from an analysis of your individual situation — marital status, distance from the border, years of employment in Switzerland, gross income — to structure the discussion around your case.

This page is part of Frontaliere Ticino, the reference platform for cross-border workers between Switzerland (Canton Ticino) and Italy. Find practical tools, updated data, and verified information.

Content is designed to help cross-border workers make informed decisions about taxation, pensions, transportation, cost of living, and administrative procedures.

All tools and data are updated for the 2026 fiscal year, reflecting the New Bilateral Tax Agreement between Switzerland and Italy, current AVS/LPP contribution rates, and Canton Ticino withholding tax tables.

The platform covers the complete cross-border worker lifecycle: from obtaining your G or B permit and opening a Swiss bank account, to filing your annual tax returns in both countries, planning your AVS and LPP pension, and comparing the cost of living on both sides of the border.
