Questão jurídica principal
Whether foreign-earned income must be included in the military service tax base.
Decisão extraída
Yes. The tax base covers the entire net income earned in Switzerland and abroad.
Fundamentação extraída
The amendment to Art. 11 MPG was only editorial; the wording still refers to total net income earned in and outside Switzerland. The equalization purpose and personal nature of the levy require consideration of all income, not only income taxed in Switzerland.
