What is an extract from the debt enforcement register?
All Swiss cantons have a public service called the Cantonal Debt Collection Office. This office acts as an intermediary between creditors and debtors. It registers debt collection requests.
It is empowered to serve payment orders, receive oppositions and execute seizures. It is the Office itself that issues the extract from the debt collection register, which is often requested when signing a property rental contract.
The extract from the debt collection register indicates whether you have been subject to debt collection proceedings in the last five years, in the debt collection district where you are applying.
