106 municipalities, one tax law – but major differences
In the 2025 tax year, the Canton of Solothurn had 106 municipalities (from 2026, following the merger around Kriegstetten, there are 104). The simple cantonal tax is derived from taxable income; it is multiplied by the cantonal tax multiplier (104 % in the 2025 tax year) and the tax multiplier of your municipality of residence, plus church tax depending on your denomination.
In 2025, the communal tax multipliers range from 65 % (Kammersrohr) to 145 % (Bolken). This changes nothing about how your tax return is recorded: your municipality of residence is decisive, and in the event of a move within the canton it is generally the one at the end of the year.
