An insured individual can request a cash payment of their 2nd pillar pension benefits if they can demonstrate that they are permanently relocating from Switzerland to settle abroad. However, the specific terms and conditions for this payout vary depending on the destination country.
If the insured person is moving permanently to an EU/EFTA country where citizens are required to have insurance for old age, death, and disability risks, they cannot receive a cash payout for their LPP/BVG pension benefits. Nonetheless, they can receive a cash payout for the non-compulsory portion of the benefits.
If the insured person is relocating permanently to an EU/EFTA country that does not mandate insurance for old age, death, and disability risks, they can receive a cash payout for all benefits acquired under the LPP/BVG plan.
If the insured person is permanently leaving Switzerland for a country outside the EU/EFTA, they can receive a cash payout for all benefits acquired under the LPP/BVG plan.
In accordance with Swiss Federal Law (Article 5b LFLP/FZG), individuals who become self-employed and are no longer required to be part of the LPP/BVG scheme can request a cash payment of their termination benefits.
Cash payouts are liable to a distinct flat tax on lump-sum benefits at the time of payment. If you are still resident in Switzerland at the time of payment, the capital tax of the canton of residence applies. However, if you are already resident abroad at the time of payment, the withholding tax of the canton where the vested benefits foundation is domiciled applies.
It is important to note that under the social insurance law, someone is deemed to be self-employed in the case of sole proprietorship. Unlike sole proprietorship an owner of an AG or GmbH is considered to be an employee and a 2nd pillar is in this case obligatory. For sole proprietors it is voluntary to join a pension fund and in some cases, there are industry associations, making it possible for members to join the collective foundation of the association.
