Temporary Imports
Goods shipped to Switzerland from Canada for temporary admission will
require a deposit to cover the duties.
The goods must follow the requirements below:
- They must be returned to Canada
- They undergo no changes during their stay in Switzerland
- They are readily identifiable
- They remain in Switzerland for a maximum of 2 years (a 1 year
extension up to 3 times may be allowed by customs authorities)
Goods that are typically shipped for temporary admission include:
- Professional equipment
- Items used in sporting events
- Products sent to an exhibition or trade fair
- To test equipment
NOTE: Portable musical instruments are
considered personal effects so they are not required to be declared as
a temporary admission.
Qualifying for Duty & Tax Free Temporary Import
In order to import your goods duty and tax free into Switzerland,
you can pick from 1 of the 2 Temporary Import Methods listed below.
Each option has its pros and cons. Regardless, each of the
following methods requires you to complete a commercial invoice. More
details are shown in the table.
| Option # |
Temporary Import Method |
Risk of paying |
|---|
| 1 |
Commercial Invoice Only (no other documentation is provided) |
High - if broker cannot clear goods temporarily |
| 2 |
Commercial Invoice + ATA Carnet |
Very Low |
|
1. Complete a Commercial Invoice (CI) only
This is the simplest and quickest option.
See example.
NOTE: You should be aware that shipping using this
method doesn't guarantee that your items will be imported duty/tax
free. Not all brokers will clear goods as temporary imports (i.e. UPS,
Fedex, DHL) nor is it a guarantee that customs won't charge any duties
and taxes.
2. Commercial Invoice (CI) + an ATA Carnet
Completing an ATA Carnet is great option for items that frequently travel
in and out of the country. It's also great because once you have an ATA
Carnet, it is accepted by 176 countries worldwide making the application
process a one-time thing.
In addition to declaring your commercial invoice as a temporary
import, you can get an ATA Carnet for the items that are of temporary
nature.
ATA Carnets are beyond the scope of the article however, you can find
more information here: http://www.chamber.ca/carnet/
NOTE: It is highly recommended to get an ATA Carnet
for items that frequently travel in and out of the country and
especially so when it is valued over $2,500 USD
|
In addition to choosing option 1 or 2, the following conditions must also be met in order to qualify for a duty and VAT free exemption:
- The goods arrive and leave in the same condition, i.e. they
undergo no repairs nor are they used in manufacturing
- Stay no longer than 24 months in Switzerland
NOTE:
- If the above conditions are not followed, duties and taxes
will be charged as though the goods have been imported permanently
- Your Customs broker can clear goods of a temporary nature
(FedEx, UPS, DHL, etc. typically CANNOT clear goods of temporary nature)
Temporary Imports Checklist
- Commercial Invoice clearly stating 'Temporary Import'. This must be written
in the General Description section and the Detailed Description of Goods. (see sample)
- The goods arrive and leave in the same condition, i.e. they undergo no
repairs nor are they used in manufacturing
- Stay no longer than the period listed above
- Include your ATA Carnet with your shipment (if applicable)
- Include the expected return date or the date that it was originally received
within the country (whichever applies)
- Any above listed items not listed in this checklist

Duty &
Taxes
The amount of duty owing on a shipment is calculated on the gross weight
of a parcel, including the packaging. The rate is often less than
CHF 1 per kilogram (about $1.40 CAD). However, higher duty rates are
applied to shipments of alcoholic beverages, tobacco products,
jewellery, textiles, and foodstuffs.
The amount of VAT owing on a shipment is calculated using the assessment
basis of the shipment. The assessment basis is the sum of the customs
value, shipping costs, and import duties.
A VAT charge of CHF 5 or less (about $7 CAD), will not be levied
Thresholds
If the amount of duty or VAT owing is CHF 5 or less (about $7
CAD), it will not be levied.
The shipment thresholds (de minimis values) for a shipment are:
- CHF 65 (about $90 CAD) at a VAT rate of 7.7%
- CHF 200 (about $270 CAD) at a VAT rate of 2.5%
