Document background
The Vehicle Sale Receipt is a crucial document in Swiss vehicle transactions, required under the Swiss Code of Obligations and Federal Road Traffic Act. It serves as official documentation of the sale and transfer of vehicle ownership, whether between private individuals or in commercial settings. The receipt must include specific information mandated by Swiss law, including detailed vehicle identification, seller and buyer information, price, payment confirmation, and condition declarations. This document is essential for vehicle registration transfer, insurance purposes, and tax documentation. It protects both parties' interests by clearly documenting the transaction terms and vehicle condition at the time of sale, while ensuring compliance with federal and cantonal regulations.
