Swiss QR-Bill Standard: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how the Swiss QR-Bill standard works for businesses issuing invoices and what you need to do to stay compliant.
The Swiss QR-Bill standard is a modern way for businesses to issue payment slips that customers can easily scan to make payments.
Who it's for
This standard is for any business that issues invoices to customers.
What you get
You receive a standardized payment slip (also known as a QR-Rechnung) that is designed to be easily scanned by customers, making the payment process much smoother for everyone involved.
What it costs you
There are no direct government fees mentioned, but you will likely face costs related to updating your business software to ensure it can generate and process these new slips.
The catch to know
The most important thing to remember is that the old style of payment slips is no longer accepted by banks. You must ensure your invoicing system is updated to avoid payment issues.
How to apply
- Update your accounting or invoicing software to support the new standard.
- Test your new QR-Bills to ensure they scan correctly.
- Begin issuing the new slips to your customers for all future transactions.
