About Canton Compliance Hub
Free, practical compliance guidance for Swiss SMEs, grounded in official government sources, not written for lawyers.
An independent, international resource
Canton Compliance Hub is an independent information resource operated by Giladi Marketing, a business based in Israel. We are not a Swiss company, not a government body, and not affiliated with or endorsed by any Swiss federal or cantonal authority.
The word "Canton" in our name describes the subject we cover, compliance across the Swiss cantons, not where we are based. We are an outside publisher that researches the official Swiss rules and explains them in plain language. For our registered name, address, and legal form, see our Impressum.
How compliance information stays accurate
Official sources only
Every piece of compliance information on this site traces back to a Swiss government source, federal portals like estv.admin.ch, kmu.admin.ch, ahv-iv.ch, and ZEFIX, plus the official tax and AHV authorities for each canton. No third-party aggregators. No Wikipedia. No unofficial summaries.
Automated crawling and change detection
A background system monitors 90+ official government URLs on a rolling schedule. When a page changes, detected by timestamp, content hash, ETag, or sitemap drift, the affected content is flagged for re-verification. This is how the 'Last verified X days ago' figure on articles stays accurate.
AI-generated content, citation-backed
Article text is drafted by AI (GPT-4o-mini) grounded in the verified source chunks. Every factual claim maps to a specific government source, shown as inline citation chips. Claims without a source link are blocked before publishing. The AI adds structure; the government sources provide the facts.
Free compliance audit tool
The audit tool takes your plain-language description of your business situation and runs it against the same verified knowledge base. It generates a personalised PDF compliance report, delivered by email, free. If your situation needs a professional, we offer optional introductions to vetted local fiduciaries.
Every article displays a trust bar showing when it was last verified and which government portals were checked. The citation chips embedded in article text link directly to the source document, you can always verify any claim yourself.
Free for users, always
Canton Compliance Hub is free for every SME, freelancer, and foreign founder who uses it. No subscription, no paywall. It stays that way because of two revenue streams that don't compromise the content:
When an article genuinely recommends a tool (accounting software, HR platform, etc.) that you proceed to use, we may earn a commission. Affiliate cards are clearly marked and only shown where the tool is directly relevant to the article's topic and business type.
When your compliance audit suggests you need professional help, we offer an optional introduction to a vetted fiduciary in your canton. You decide whether to proceed, there's no obligation and no cost to you. We earn a referral fee from the fiduciary if you engage them.
⚠️ Not legal or tax advice
Everything on Canton Compliance Hub is general informational content only. It does not constitute legal advice, tax advice, or professional services. Swiss regulations change frequently. Your specific situation may differ from what articles describe.
Always consult a qualified Swiss fiduciary, tax adviser, or lawyer before making decisions that affect your business, tax position, or legal obligations.
Questions, corrections, or source disputes: contact@cantoncompliancehub.ch. If you believe a specific claim is incorrect or outdated, please include the article URL and the government source you are referencing.
