19 communes and the proportional tariff

The Canton of Uri has 19 communes and taxes proportionally: at a tax multiplier of 100 per cent, the tax is 7.1 per cent of taxable income and 1 per mille of wealth. The communes levy their tax multiplier as a percentage of this rate – in 2025 between 90 % (Seedorf) and 117 % (Isenthal); Altdorf is at 95 %. Church tax and a poll tax of CHF 100 are added.

For your tax return, this changes nothing about how the details are recorded: your commune of residence is decisive, and in the event of a move within the canton, in principle the commune at the end of the year. We clarify such points before we start.

eTax.UR – the electronic tax return

With eTax.UR, Uri provides an online tax return: at the beginning of February, the activation letter arrives with your PID number and access code, after which everything can be completed entirely online and without a signature.

eTax.UR is an option for anyone who wishes to complete the return themselves. If you want to be sure that every item is recorded correctly and completely, we take care of it for you: we enter your details, discuss the draft with you and prepare the submission.

Typical mistakes that cost Uri taxpayers money

In practice, we see the same points time and again: the new, high commuter deduction of up to CHF 13'000 is not fully used. The additional deductions for children in education away from home go unused. The deadline extension is requested too late – it must be submitted before the filing date.

With the proportional tariff in particular, every forgotten deduction hits your wallet directly. A specialist checks every item individually and points out missing documents to you before the return is submitted.

Tax deductions in the Canton of Uri – make use of every option

Anyone who knows all the permissible deductions and claims them correctly reduces their tax burden noticeably – with Uri's proportional tariff, even on a linear basis. The following maximum amounts apply to the 2025 tax year; the official guidelines are authoritative.

  1. 01

    Professional expenses & commuter deduction

    Travel expenses between home and workplace are now deductible in the Canton of Uri up to CHF 13'000 per year (2025 tax year; Confederation: CHF 3'300) – one of the highest amounts in Switzerland. If you use a private vehicle, the necessity must be demonstrated.

    Official source(opens in a new tab on ur.ch)
  2. 02

    Child deductions & education

    Child deduction of CHF 8'500 per child; for education away from home, an additional CHF 4'500 (meals away from home) or CHF 13'500 (accommodation away from home). In addition, substantiated third-party childcare costs of up to CHF 25'800 per child under 14 (2025 tax year).

  3. 03

    Pillar 3a & pension provision

    Payments into tied pension provision are deductible up to CHF 7'258 (2025 tax year, employees with a pension fund); buy-ins into the pension fund are added to this. We assign the certificates to the correct item and check whether the permissible amount has been fully used.

  4. 04

    Insurance premiums & savings interest

    With contributions to a pension fund or pillar 3a, up to CHF 3'700 (married persons) or CHF 1'800 (others) is deductible; without such contributions, CHF 5'550 or CHF 2'700 – plus CHF 700 per child (2025 tax year).

  5. 05

    Further education costs

    Job-related education and further training: up to CHF 13'000 per person and year (2025 tax year, Canton of Uri and Confederation). This includes course fees, teaching materials, examination fees and travel costs to the course venue.

  6. 06

    Donations & charitable contributions

    Voluntary contributions to tax-exempt charitable institutions domiciled in Switzerland as well as contributions to political parties, each within the applicable limits.

There are also further items such as debt interest, maintenance payments, property costs or asset management costs. Which deductions can be substantiated in your situation is something we clarify before we start – free of charge and without obligation.

Withholding tax

Withholding tax in the Canton of Uri

If your salary is taxed directly at source, an ordinary tax return is not automatically required – but in certain cases it is mandatory or possible on a voluntary basis.

01

Who is subject to withholding tax?

In principle, foreign employees without a C settlement permit who are resident or staying in the canton – for example with a B or L permit. The withholding tax unit of the Uri tax office (Amt für Steuern Uri) in Altdorf is responsible.

02

NOV – subsequent ordinary assessment

From a gross annual income subject to withholding tax of CHF 120'000, the subsequent ordinary assessment (NOV) is mandatory; for married couples, the incomes are not added together. Below this threshold, it can be requested voluntarily – by 31 March of the following year.

03

How we support you

We check the tariff code, marital status, other income and possible deductions – such as the high Uri commuter deduction – and assess whether a NOV is worthwhile in your case. We then file the application on time.

This information is for guidance only and does not replace an individual assessment. We review your specific situation before we start.

Typical situations in the Canton of Uri

Commuters benefit under the new rules

Since the 2025 tax year, Uri has allowed a travel expenses deduction of up to CHF 13'000 per year – one of the highest amounts in Switzerland. Anyone commuting to Schwyz, Lucerne or Zug should make full use of this deduction; we check the supporting documents.

Flat rate instead of progression

Uri taxes income proportionally: at a tax multiplier of 100 per cent, the tax is 7.1 per cent of taxable income – the same for everyone, with no progression at cantonal and communal level. This makes every deduction all the more direct: whatever you deduct saves tax on a linear basis.

Andermatt and tourism

With the Andermatt resort, Uri is also relevant for second homes and seasonal employment. Properties outside your canton of residence lead to a tax allocation – we record all properties in full.

Families with children in education

In addition to the child deduction of CHF 8'500, Uri offers substantial additional deductions for education away from home: CHF 4'500 for meals away from home, CHF 13'500 for accommodation away from home. Third-party childcare costs of up to CHF 25'800 per child are also deductible (2025 tax year).

Property and imputed rental value in the Canton of Uri

Anyone who owns residential property in the Canton of Uri pays tax on the imputed rental value as income and can in return deduct mortgage interest, maintenance and administration costs. The key is a clean separation: repairs and replacements preserve the value and are deductible; an extension increases it and is not.

With the Andermatt resort, Uri is also a canton of second homes: if you are resident elsewhere, you have limited tax liability with a tax allocation between the cantons. We record all properties in full.

The proportional wealth tax of 1 per mille (at a tax multiplier of 100 %) keeps the ongoing burden for owners manageable – but the wealth must still be declared correctly.

  • Imputed rental value and property details recorded correctly
  • Mortgage interest and list of debts checked
  • Maintenance: value-preserving separated from value-enhancing
  • Lump-sum or actual deduction compared
  • Properties outside the canton and second homes taken into account

Additional service: CHF 65.– per property.

Communal comparison

Tax multipliers of the communes in the Canton of Uri

Uri taxes proportionally: at a tax multiplier of 100 per cent, the tax is 7.1 per cent of taxable income. The canton (100 %) and the commune each levy their own tax multiplier; church tax and the poll tax of CHF 100 are added. The following selection shows the communal tax multipliers.

In 2025, the range extends from 90 % (Seedorf) to 117 % (Isenthal) – considerably narrower than in the large cantons. With the proportional tariff, one thing counts above all: making full use of all permissible deductions.
