Secondary residence

Hi everyone

I've got two questions regarding secondary residences. I'm a full-time employee (with B-permit) in Zurich, but will also be having a secondary residence very soon near Biel/Bienne. Both are rented apartments.

I had a look at the "Quellensteuer" rates for both canton ZH and BE. BE works out to be 7% more in Quellensteuer, which is more than half of what I pay monthly for my rent in Zurich. So my idea is to keep my primary residence in Zurich.

- However, is there any way I can save taxes or reclaim anything for my secondary residence?

- Is there any tax on secondary residences?

- And does anyone know who I have to register the secondary residence with? In both locations, in Zurich and in Biel's registration office, or just in Zurich?
