The Partial Payment Acknowledgement Receipt is a crucial document used in Swiss business and legal practice when a debtor makes a payment that partially satisfies an existing financial obligation. This document, governed by the Swiss Code of Obligations, serves multiple purposes: it provides legal proof of payment, updates the status of the debt, and can restart the statute of limitations for the remaining balance. The receipt should be used whenever a partial payment is made on any type of debt or financial obligation, whether in commercial or private contexts. It typically includes detailed information about the original debt, the partial payment received, the remaining balance, and how the payment has been allocated (e.g., to principal, interest, or fees). Under Swiss law, this document helps prevent future disputes about payment history and protects both creditor and debtor interests by providing clear documentation of the transaction.
