Tax filing deadlines — Uri 2026

When it's due, how to extend it, and what happens if you don't.

Base filing deadline

31 MarchVerified

In Uri, extension requests go through your commune's tax office, not a central cantonal portal — process and fee practice can vary from one commune to the next.

The one deadline that's the same everywhere

A Pillar 3a contribution or pension-fund (BVG) buy-in counts for a tax year only if it's credited to your account by 31 December of that year — the date you initiate the payment doesn't count, only the date it lands.

Banks and 3a foundations often close their own booking cutoff a few days early (commonly ~24–27 December) so the payment posts in time — that's provider practice, not law, so don't wait until the 31st.
