@kapp activity then dividends and withholding tax.

@johnstalling Statement.

@pastorphil Check your withholding tax for Dividends on U.S. Stocks or ETF, if 15% IB did that for you, if 30% open a ticket. You get a message if you have to fill out W-8 BEN, but I think since a few years they do it for you if you have Swiss tax residence.

@uberweston As already said, use IB, way cheaper than UBS and no stamp tax. Many people hedge currency risks with futures, swaps, carry trades, options, or, the most expensive way, hedged ETF. I don't. In my opinion every last and single company is it's own currency. If you measure your...

@virginiaann Just a small remark: select the vendor, probably avoid small vendors.

@georgefeege Cheapest works only if you have already an account at Interactive Brokers and both, the CHF and EUR account are in your name: you send the CHF to IB, change it there to EUR and then send the EUR to your German account. Don't bother opening an account just for this purpose, it will...

@daibushi Correct. If Kanton ZH you even will be asked if you want to put the position into DA1.

@daibushi Easy peasy, just put the positions in form DA1, that is all. Details depend on Kanton, most will first charge tax and then pay you back according to several factors. Usually you get the money in October, but i guess this depends on the Kanton too. BTW: the 15% is the maximum you get...
