Are you looking for a tax advisor in Aarau who looks at your commute, your home and your pension provision in the same calculation? Then you are in the right place.
Our tax specialists at Bahnhofstrasse 41 review your deductions, declare your property correctly and calculate with your Aargau municipality of residence.
Aargau is a canton of outbound commuters: many households work in Zurich, Basel or Bern and choose to live here. Exactly that gives rise to the tax questions we answer every day.
We work independently and on a fee basis – in person a few minutes' walk from Aarau railway station or entirely digitally.

Providing a few brief details will help us to optimally prepare your request.
tailor-made. comprehensive. for you. – that promise shapes our tax advice too. We start with your situation, not with the form. Three principles carry it:
Anyone working away from home has travel costs and meals away from home in the declaration – both deductions are capped, and the caps differ between federal and cantonal tax. We claim what is actually permissible and document it properly.
Within the canton of Aargau the municipal tax multipliers differ markedly. For pension buy-ins, capital withdrawals and home ownership that is no side issue – we calculate with your municipality.
Your relationship with Aargauische Kantonalbank or your regional bank stays as it is, as long as it works for you. We do not sell products in order to save tax – we first calculate what your existing position allows.
As the cantonal capital, Aarau brings together administration, trades and industry – and is at the same time home to many people who work elsewhere. Our tax advice is for everyone who wants to turn that into clarity – embedded in taxes, retirement provision and mortgages. In Aargau we are also there for you in Baden; you will find all our locations on Tax advice Switzerland.
Living in Aargau, working in Zurich, Basel or Bern: for tax it is your residence that counts, but the commute takes effect through the deductions. We show what is permissible and how the overall calculation changes if you move.
Home ownership is within reach for many people in Aargau – and demanding for tax: imputed rental value, mortgage interest, value-preserving maintenance and the question of what will count later for property gains tax.
The canton, the municipalities and energy and industrial companies shape the region. We read your pension statement, set out buy-ins and withdrawal options, and show what your position allows for tax.
From the craft business to the supplier: we separate private and business accounting cleanly, align salary and dividends, and prepare succession for tax before it becomes urgent.
We deal with these and many other questions every day. Is yours missing? Just fill in the form at the top of this page – we will get back to you.
You will find us at Bahnhofstrasse 41, 5000 Aarau – a few minutes' walk from the station and therefore easy to reach from Zurich, Basel or Bern as well. Appointments by video are possible too.
For a standard tax return we work with flat fees – currently from CHF 132.00 for a single person; you will find the remaining flat fees on our Taxes page. If your situation is more complex, for example with a property or self-employment, we name the range before we start. The initial consultation is free.
Partly. Travel costs to your place of work are in principle deductible, but capped – and the cap is not necessarily the same for federal tax and in the canton. On top of that comes the deduction for meals away from home. We claim what is permissible in your case rather than declaring everything as a lump sum.
Yes. The tax multipliers of Aargau municipalities differ markedly. For capital withdrawals, pension buy-ins and home ownership that can make the difference – so we calculate with your actual municipality rather than a cantonal average.
No. We are bank- and product-neutral. Whether you are with Aargauische Kantonalbank, a regional bank or a large bank: we first review your existing solution and recommend a change only if it adds up for you.
Yes, we have two locations in Aargau: in Aarau at Bahnhofstrasse 41 and in Baden at Stadtturmstrasse 10. You are free to choose whichever location suits you better – the advice is the same.
