On 11 April 2019, the Swiss Federal Tax Administration released draft clarifications for services to qualify as electronic services for VAT purposes.

The FTA has embarked on a project to revise its practices in this area and that would include changes to sector information No. 13 relating to telecommunication and electronically supplied services.
