Grisons Wealth Tax Calculator
Grisons (Graubünden) Wealth Tax Calculator 2025
Estimate your annual wealth tax liability in the Canton of Grisons (Graubünden) — adjust for filing status, basic allowance and municipal multiplier.
The Canton of Grisons (German: Graubünden) applies a progressive cantonal wealth tax on taxable net wealth after personal allowances and debt deductions. Municipal and church authorities then apply surcharges via their own tax factors / multipliers, leading to substantial differences between communes.
This calculator models a stylised progressive cantonal tariff for the 2025 tax year and lets you apply a municipal multiplier to approximate the combined cantonal, communal and church wealth tax. It is designed for planning and comparison and does not replace the official calculator of the Grisons tax administration.
Step 1: Taxable Net Wealth = Net Wealth − Personal Allowance
Step 2: Simple Cantonal Wealth Tax = Apply progressive Grisons tariff (in ‰) to Taxable Net Wealth
Step 3: Total Wealth Tax ≈ Simple Cantonal Tax × (1 + Municipal Multiplier)
For this planning tool, personal allowances are modelled as CHF 100,000 for single taxpayers and CHF 200,000 for married couples (joint assessment). Child supplements, church-tax variations and special reliefs are not fully captured.
Interactive Calculator
Enter your net wealth, filing status and an approximate municipal multiplier for your commune. As a broad indication, many Grisons municipalities result in a total burden between 1.1× and 1.6× of the simple cantonal wealth tax (depending on commune and church membership).
Example Scenarios
Example A — Single, CHF 1,000,000, Municipal Multiplier 0.45
Net wealth CHF 1,000,000.
Personal allowance (single) CHF 100,000 → taxable CHF 900,000.
Progressive simple cantonal wealth tax ≈ CHF 1,450 (rounded, using the stylised bands).
Municipal multiplier 0.45 → total wealth tax ≈ CHF 2,100 (145% of simple tax).
Effective burden ≈ 0.21% of net wealth.
Example B — Married, CHF 3,000,000, Municipal Multiplier 0.35
Net wealth CHF 3,000,000.
Personal allowance (married / joint) CHF 200,000 → taxable CHF 2,800,000.
Progressive simple cantonal wealth tax ≈ CHF 5,300 (rounded).
Municipal multiplier 0.35 → total wealth tax ≈ CHF 7,200 (135% of simple tax).
Effective burden ≈ 0.24% of net wealth (excluding detailed church tax and special deductions).
These scenarios are indicative and rounded. Actual assessments depend on the precise municipal and church tax factors, official cantonal tariff steps, family situation and full deductions as applied by the Grisons tax authorities.
