Hello everyone,

I am in the process of filling the form to claim back Verrechnungssteuer on my interest gained in bank. I paid Withholding Tax (Quellensteuer) and do not need to fill in a Steuererklärung normally.

Could anyone tell me what a Steuerwert is? I know I need to put in my total interest gained (as Bruttoertrag) but what should I fill in for Steuerwert and Bezeichnung der Vermögenswerte (name of bank or account?)

Thanks for your help...

just saw this post..im currently filling my tax return..have the same question what is Steuerwert? I know it is tax value, im declaring my end of year interest from the bank..would this just be the end of year bank balance then.

The value of the loan or asset,

Explanation:
The tax base of an asset (or liability) is the fair amount of that asset or liability for tax purposes.

Can you point out how to do this? I am in Kanton Zurich and can't find a form which looks like appropriate...
