105 %

municipal tax multiplier, applied to the simple cantonal tax

Municipal tax rate 2026 as published by the canton. Tax rates are not comparable across cantons. The label states what the figure refers to. The amount in francs is in the table below.

Tax-burden trend 2018 → 2026

14.3 % → 12.8 % of income

Down 1.46 percentage points

Reference profile: single, CHF 100,000 gross income, both years calculated with the FTA tax calculator. The same franc amount is compared. Because cantons adjust their tariffs for inflation, the burden on it falls almost everywhere. The meaningful comparison is therefore the Swiss median: -1.22 percentage points (1,996 municipalities down, 35 up). Your own burden depends on income and household; the location report calculates it.
