Switzerland will abolish industrial tariffs as of January 1, 2024 – a significant step for cross-border goods traffic. The tariff adjustment affects all industrial products, i.e., almost all goods in chapters 25 to 97. But what exactly falls under the new regulation – and how can companies prepare effectively?
In this article, we provide a compact overview of the key points and offer a practical checklist.
Preparing for the Abolition of Industrial Tariffs 2024: A Checklist for Switzerland
From January 1, 2024, the customs tariff will be adjusted due to the abolition of industrial tariffs and the simplification of the Swiss customs tariff structure for industrial products.
In Switzerland, industrial products include all goods except agricultural products (including animal feed) and fishery products. The abolition of industrial tariffs thus covers all goods in chapters 25–97 of the customs tariff, with the exception of some products in chapters 35 and 38, which are classified as agricultural products.
We have summarized the most relevant practical information in five key points. For more information, please see here.
