Fees and charges

TARIFF VALID FROM 1 JANUARY 2019

The boarding fees (fees for babies / for children) are determined on the basis of income and assets. The "total taxable income" (item 25 of the tax return) and the "total taxable assets" (item 35 of the tax return) are relevant for the determination of the fees.

The daily fee is a minimum of CHF 50 and a maximum of CHF 140 (babies under 18 months CHF 150).

Families who do not live in Zumikon pay CHF 150 per day (babies under 18 months CHF 160).

The tariff year runs from August to July of the following year. Parents must send the relevant information to the childcare management by the end of June on the form provided for this purpose. Otherwise, the maximum tax will be applied. The boarding fees (fees for babies / for children) are invoiced per calendar month by the Municipal Administration Zumikon (on our behalf) in the form of a monthly flat rate plus any additional days and other fees and expenses.

Discount for siblings

From the second child on, a discount of 20% is granted on the boarding fees. However, the minimum tax may not be undercut.
