Questions about this document

Domicile vs. residence — the practical difference?
Your domicile is your legal centre of life; residence is where you actually stay. A weekly commuter in Zurich domiciled in Valais needs the Valais document for tax files. Tell us the use, we order the correct paper.
My foreign tax office wants "fiscal residence" proof — is this it?
Often the domicile certificate plus a tax-office attestation is the winning pair for treaty claims. We can obtain both — mention the treaty country in your order.
Can companies order a domicile certificate?
For legal entities, the equivalent is the commercial register extract showing the registered seat — see that page, or ask us via quote for combined files.
