QR-bill invoicing for beauty salons in Lajoux (JU) without the stress: how it works
Swiss accounting law (art. 957 ff. of the Code of Obligations) sets a precise frame, yet day-to-day practice often stays fuzzy. This guide walks through what actually matters for a business based in Lajoux (JU).
Digitalising QR-bill invoicing: what actually works
Digitising does not mean hoarding PDFs: without the document-entry link, a digital file is as opaque as a box of archives — true in Lajoux (JU) as everywhere.
For an SME in Lajoux (JU), 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.
QR-bills and friction-free collections
Since 30 September 2022, the QR-bill has fully replaced the old Swiss payment slips. The Swiss QR Code carries the IBAN (or QR-IBAN), the amount, the debtor and a structured reference: enough to match every incoming payment to its invoice automatically.
For QR-bill invoicing, invoicing fast changes everything: a service billed the week it is delivered gets paid noticeably earlier than a month-end batch invoice.
A well-structured SME chart of accounts
Shareholder current accounts demand strict hygiene: every private withdrawal documented, interest at the rates accepted by the tax administration, and a clean-up at closing.
In an SME in Lajoux (JU), the chart of accounts is also a delegation tool: clear posting rules let a non-accountant prepare most entries without error.
Outsource QR-bill invoicing or keep it in-house?
Responsibility stays with the client: the fiduciary executes with care, but the signed accounts bind the company. Understanding what you sign is not optional.
For QR-bill invoicing, a quarterly 30-minute check-in with the fiduciary beats an annual marathon: questions get handled while they are small.
Lajoux (JU): what changes, what does not
Lajoux (JU) (postal code 2718, canton Jura) applies the same federal rules as the rest of the country: what changes in Lajoux (JU) are the cantonal counterparts — tax administration, compensation office, commercial register.
Federal deadlines do not move in Lajoux (JU): VAT within 60 days, salary declaration in January, 10-year record retention — postal code 2718 changes nothing about those rules, only the sender's address.
Frequently asked questions
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 Lajoux (JU) can therefore archive fully digitally.
Do you need a fiduciary for QR-bill invoicing, or can you do it yourself?
Both are defensible. Below CHF 500,000 of revenue, a sole proprietorship may keep simplified accounts itself. As soon as payroll, VAT and a closing with tax stakes are involved, professional support prevents mistakes that cost more than the fees. With a shared platform, the fiduciary does not even need to be in Lajoux (JU).
What is the difference between a limited and an ordinary audit?
The ordinary audit applies to companies exceeding, for two consecutive years, two of three thresholds: CHF 20 million balance sheet total, CHF 40 million revenue, 250 full-time positions. Others fall under the limited audit, and those with no more than ten full-time positions on annual average can opt out with all shareholders' consent. These federal thresholds do not depend on the registered seat — in Lajoux (JU) as anywhere.

Yes: the platform runs online, the rules applied are federal (VAT, CO, AHV), and the file can be shared with any fiduciary. A business in Lajoux (JU) manages its documents, VAT and exports exactly as anywhere in Switzerland.
