QR-bill invoicing for hair salons in Nunningen: rules, deadlines, best practice

QR-bill invoicing for hair salons in Nunningen rests on three pillars: federal law that applies across Switzerland, cantonal deadlines worth knowing, and tools that eliminate re-keying. This guide puts it all in order, fact by fact.

Digitalising QR-bill invoicing: what actually works

Accounting digitalisation always follows the same path: capture documents at the source (photo or PDF upload), let automatic recognition extract supplier, amount, date and VAT, approve the proposed entries, then archive each document linked to its entry. Every step removes a re-keying — and therefore an error source.

For an SME in Nunningen, the real gain of digitalised QR-bill invoicing shows day to day: no paper pile at month-end, VAT prepared continuously, and an owner reading today's figures rather than last quarter's.

Outsource QR-bill invoicing or keep it in-house?

Splitting roles clearly avoids duplication: the company captures documents and approves payments; the fiduciary checks postings, closes the year and defends the file before the authorities. Each side does what it does best — and nobody keys the same invoice twice.

A business in Nunningen can combine the models: internal day-to-day entry, monthly external supervision, closing and taxes with the specialist — QR-bill invoicing splits very well.

The Swiss legal frame for QR-bill invoicing

AHV audits and VAT audits follow the same logic: start from the documents, trace to the entries, check consistency. A business in Nunningen with a clean audit trail sails through these exercises.

The law also settles the form: accounts may be kept in a national language or in English, on paper or electronically (art. 957a para. 5 CO). That pragmatism lets QR-bill invoicing run entirely on digital tools — no paper binder is required.

A well-structured SME chart of accounts

The same chart serves three readings: accounting (accuracy), tax (accepted adjustments) and management (margins by activity). Modern software produces all three views without double entry.

Standard numbering also enables automation: stable posting rules (same supplier, same account) make data entry predictable and the audit faster. Avoid changing the chart of accounts mid-year — migrate at the closing date, with a documented mapping table.

Nunningen: what changes, what does not

Working with a fiduciary from Nunningen no longer depends on geography: the documents of a business in Nunningen are shared online, while the canton Solothurn keeps its own deadlines for the tax return.

Nunningen requires no special bookkeeping: the Code of Obligations applies at postal code 4208 as everywhere else, and a well-kept digital file transfers smoothly to any auditor in the canton.

Frequently asked questions

Which social contributions does a Swiss employer pay?

AHV/IV/APG: 5.3% employer share (the same is withheld from the employee); unemployment insurance: 1.1% each up to CHF 148,200 a year; occupational pension (LPP) by age and plan (employer at least 50%); occupational accident insurance paid by the employer; family allowances by canton. For an employer in Nunningen, family allowances follow the canton's rates.

How long must records related to QR-bill invoicing be kept?

Ten years from the end of the financial year concerned (art. 958f CO). Electronic retention is permitted if the integrity and readability of the records are guaranteed — a serious digital archive validly replaces paper binders. A business in Nunningen can therefore archive fully digitally.

What are the current Swiss VAT rates?

Since 1 January 2024: 8.1% (standard), 2.6% (reduced — for example food and medicines) and 3.8% (accommodation). Returns must be filed and paid within 60 days after the period ends (quarterly under the effective method, semi-annually under the net tax rate method). These federal rates apply unchanged in Nunningen.

How much does QR-bill invoicing cost in Nunningen?

It depends on document volume, the number of salaries and VAT complexity — no serious figure can be quoted without examining the file. Two levers cut the bill everywhere: digitised, well-filed receipts and software that prepares entries instead of having them re-keyed.
