- 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.
- Request that a debt enforcement not be disclosed, in Italian (Switzerland)For debtors in Switzerland who objected (opposizione) to the whole claim, in Italian: asks the debt collection office (Ufficio d’esecuzione) under Art. 8a para. 3 let. d DEBA to stop disclosing the enforcement to third parties, at the earliest three months after the payment order (precetto esecutivo) was served. The office gives the creditor 20 days to prove proceedings to set the objection aside. The flat fee of CHF 40.00 is owed even if the request fails (Art. 12b of the fees ordinance). The Federal Office of Justice's model form is free. Sent by registered post to the office that issued the payment order, in Ticino in its official language.
- 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. The Consumer Credit Act does not apply as long as neither party grants credit as a business and no crowdlending platform arranges the loan (Art. 2 CCA). Print two copies and have both parties sign.
- Reply to a collection agency: contest the debt and the charges (Switzerland)For private persons in Switzerland who received a letter from a collection agency (Inkassobüro, société de recouvrement, agenzia d’incasso): contests the claim in whole or part, reports it paid or pleads limitation, refuses collection fees and a flat “damage for delay” that were never agreed, and asks for a breakdown with documents. If a payment order from the debt collection office follows, object within ten days. Send it by registered post and keep a copy. Swiss authorities and courts work in their official language — German, French or Italian — so this English version is for dealings between private parties.
