Many tour operators in and around the Europe region are establishing business units in Switzerland to benefit from tax savings. According to Swiss VAT legislation, tour operators should not levy Swiss VAT on tours outside Switzerland. If an operator from anywhere in Europe sells an EU trip to a customer, the operator is liable to pay VAT of 20% under the Tour Operator Margin Scheme (TOMS). Operators based in Switzerland are not liable to pay this. In Switzerland, VAT is only charged if the tour takes place within Switzerland. This provides savings for operators who conduct their business online or in-store from Switzerland.
