- Mutual non-disclosure agreement (Switzerland)For two businesses or self-employed people in Switzerland who exchange confidential information before working together, investing or buying: the purpose, what is and is not confidential, use only for the purpose, sharing only with bound staff and advisers, no reverse engineering, disclosure on an authority's order, return and deletion, duration and an optional contractual penalty (Art. 160 ff. CO). Swiss law and an optional place of jurisdiction. Signed by both parties. Swiss authorities and courts work in their official language — German, French or Italian — so this English version is for dealings between private parties.
- Freelance services agreement (Switzerland)For clients and freelancers in Switzerland: a mandate (Auftrag) under Art. 394 ff. of the Code of Obligations (CO) covering the services, duration, fee with a VAT choice, expenses, payment terms, independence, AHV as a self-employed person, rights in the work results, confidentiality and data protection. It names false self-employment: the AHV compensation office (Ausgleichskasse) decides the status on the actual facts, not the contract. Either party may terminate at any time (Art. 404 CO). Signed by both parties. Swiss authorities and courts work in their official language — German, French or Italian — so this English version is for dealings between private parties.
- Acknowledgement of debt with a repayment plan, in Italian (Switzerland)For creditors and debtors in Switzerland who agree to clear a debt in instalments, in Italian: the debtor acknowledges the amount, and both agree monthly instalments, the account, a grace period and that the balance falls due if an instalment is missed. Important for the debtor: a signed acknowledgement of debt is a title for provisional removal of an objection (rigetto provvisorio, Art. 82 DEBA) — if the debtor later objects to a payment order, the creditor can have the objection set aside without an ordinary lawsuit. Print two copies and sign both by hand.
- Loan agreement between private persons, in Italian (Switzerland)For private persons in Switzerland lending each other money — family, friends or acquaintances — in Italian: records the amount, the payout, interest (or none), repayment in one sum, in monthly instalments or within six weeks of being asked (Art. 318 CO) and what happens on default, with a separate signed receipt.

With an inventory annex. Print two copies and both sign.
