What is stamp duty and when do I have to pay it?

The stamp duty is a federal tax that is levied on every purchase and sale of securities like ETFs. It is settled automatically for you and is already included in the transaction costs. This way, you don't have to worry about anything. 

The amount is low, at 0.075% for Swiss securities and 0.15% for foreign securities.
