The Commercial Invoice Tax Invoice is a fundamental business document required for commercial transactions in Switzerland. It serves dual purposes: as a commercial document evidencing a business transaction and as a tax document for VAT purposes. This document type is mandatory for businesses registered for VAT in Switzerland and must comply with the Federal Act on Value Added Tax and related regulations. It includes essential elements such as the seller's and buyer's details, VAT numbers, detailed description of goods or services, applicable VAT rates, and total amounts. The document is crucial for maintaining proper business records, claiming input VAT credits, and meeting Swiss tax compliance requirements. It must be retained for the statutory period (typically 10 years) and may be subject to review during tax audits.
