Platform tax reports: reconcile income and transactions
A platform tax report is evidence to reconcile, rather than a final calculation of taxable income. Distinguish private disposals, trading activity, fees and cancelled transactions. France's DAC7 reporting framework does not automatically apply as a Swiss domestic rule. The reconciliation explains differences between platform totals and tax records without treating a reporting threshold as a universal tax exemption.

Use one currency and one period. Initial figures are fictional; the result is arithmetic only. The statement balance is not calculated taxable income. This worksheet organises records; it does not establish admissibility, entitlement or a procedural outcome.
Which annual platform statement was received?
Keep operator, year and itemised amounts. French CGI 1649terA concerns reporting, not a universal seller-tax calculation.

Which official provision helps explain this situation?
I.-L'entreprise ou l'organisme qui, en qualité d'opérateur de plateforme, met à la disposition d'utilisateurs un dispositif permettant une mise en relation par voie électronique afin d'effectuer, directement ou indirectement, des opérations de vente d'un bien, de fourniture d'un service par des personnes physiques, de location d'un mode de transport ou de location d'un bien immobilier de toute nature souscrit auprès de l'administration fiscale une déclaration relative aux opérations réalisées par des vendeurs et prestataires par son intermédiaire.
