Invoice scanning for taxi operators in Dizy: the practical guide
Invoice scanning for taxi operators in Dizy raises the same questions for most Swiss SME owners: which obligations apply, which deadlines are running, which documents to prepare. This page covers the federal rules in force — without unnecessary jargon.
Digitalising invoice scanning: 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 Dizy as everywhere.
For an SME in Dizy, the real gain of digitalised invoice scanning 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.
A well-structured SME chart of accounts
A chart of accounts gets documented: one description line per account (what, when, VAT) is enough for two people to post the same way. It is the quality manual of invoice scanning, valid in Dizy as anywhere.
In an SME in Dizy, the chart of accounts is also a delegation tool: clear posting rules let a non-accountant prepare most entries without error.
Outsource invoice scanning or keep it in-house?
A good test before choosing: ask the fiduciary HOW it wants to receive the documents. A precise answer (formats, frequency, platform) says more than any brochure — including in Dizy.
A business in Dizy is no longer limited to fiduciaries in its canton: with a shared online platform, collaboration works remotely, documents and entries visible to both sides in real time. The choice widens to all of Switzerland — competence becomes the criterion again, not the postcode.
QR-bills and friction-free collections
Clear payment terms, a visible due date, exact details: half of late payments come from ambiguous invoices, not bad payers — the finding holds in Dizy too.
Used properly, the QR reference removes most manual debtor ticking. For invoice scanning, that means reminders triggered on reliable data and continuously readable cash flow — no more waiting for month-end to know who has paid.
Dizy: what changes, what does not
Dizy (postal code 1304, canton Vaud) applies the same federal rules as the rest of the country: what changes in Dizy are the cantonal counterparts — tax administration, compensation office, commercial register.
Federal deadlines do not move in Dizy: VAT within 60 days, salary declaration in January, 10-year record retention — postal code 1304 changes nothing about those rules, only the sender's address.
Frequently asked questions
What is simplified bookkeeping and who can use it?
Sole proprietorships and partnerships under CHF 500,000 of revenue may limit themselves to recording income, expenses and assets (art. 957 para. 2 CO). Once over the threshold — or upon founding a Sàrl or an SA — full accounts with balance sheet, income statement and notes become mandatory. The CHF 500,000 threshold is assessed the same way in Dizy.
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 Dizy, family allowances follow the canton's rates.
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 Dizy as anywhere.
How long must records related to invoice scanning 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 Dizy can therefore archive fully digitally.
