Order your debt enforcement register extract online.

With Hoop, you order a debt enforcement register extract online: on yourself, your company or, if you can show a legitimate interest, on third parties. The competent debt enforcement office usually issues it the same or the next working day as an electronically signed PDF. Last reviewed: November 2026.

A debt enforcement extract (Betreibungsauszug) is an official document from the Swiss debt enforcement/collection register (Betreibungsregister) showing whether a person or company has been or is subject to debt enforcement proceedings. Read more about what a debt enforcement extract is in our guide.

A debt enforcement information request (Betreibungsauskunft) is the legal right to obtain information from the register; in practice, this information is normally provided as a written debt enforcement extract (Betreibungsauszug), which is the document you receive from us. 

Both private individuals and companies can order a debt enforcement extract (Betreibungsauszug) here, either for themselves or, if they have a legitimate interest, for another person or company. 

Typical use cases are apartment applications, credit or leasing checks, employment in sensitive roles, or onboarding of new business partners who need a recent view of the debt enforcement/collection register (Betreibungsregister).

The responsible office is the one at your place of residence, or for a company the one at its registered office. The extract only shows the entries of that office. If you have moved in recent years, landlords and banks often also ask for an extract from your previous office.

The extract lists relevant debt enforcement proceedings (Betreibungen) with dates, amounts, and the stage of the procedure (for example, payment order / Zahlungsbefehl or seizure / Pfändung), in line with Swiss rules for the debt enforcement/collection register (Betreibungsregister).

Once you complete the online process, your debt enforcement extract (Betreibungsauszug) is usually issued and delivered digitally within a short time frame, typically within the same or the next working day. 

You receive a PDF debt enforcement extract (Betreibungsauszug) that is issued and electronically signed so that it is legally equivalent to a traditional paper extract from the debt enforcement/collection register (Betreibungsregister). 

The extract always shows the situation on the date of issue, but in practice, most landlords, banks, and employers expect a debt enforcement extract (Betreibungsauszug) that is no older than a few weeks, in some cases up to 3 months, depending on the party requesting it. 

Yes. The debt enforcement extract (Betreibungsauszug) you receive is based on data from the official debt enforcement/collection register (Betreibungsregister) and is accepted in the same way as an extract obtained via traditional channels. 

You need a valid identity document and, if you request a debt enforcement extract (Betreibungsauszug) about another person or company, a short description or document showing your legitimate interest; our guided flow explains step by step what to upload and where. 

You can place your order with Hoop in German, French, Italian or English. The extract itself is issued by the competent debt enforcement office in the official language of the canton or municipality.
