Starting in 2026, your private health insurance provider will report the health and long-term care insurance contributions directly to the tax office.
What changes for you?
If employed, you no longer need to send the employer’s letter to your employer.
You don’t need to submit your tax certificate to the tax authority - this applies to everyone, no matter your employment status.
Both your employer and the tax office will automatically have this information.
Do you need to do anything?
In most cases, nothing at all.
If your tax ID and date of birth are already on file, reporting will happen automatically.
If you haven’t provided your tax ID yet, you’ll need to submit it so your contributions can be correctly assigned to you.
Can you object to this reporting?
Yes. You may object in writing before the yearly reporting is submitted.
Important: If you object, there may be tax consequences.
Your employer subsidy could become taxable.
Some of your contributions might no longer be fully tax-deductible.
Any corrections would then need to be handled later through your income tax return.
What’s the benefit for you?
It reduces paperwork and helps ensure your tax benefits are applied correctly and without extra steps.
