What is an extract from the prosecution office?
The Swiss cantons all have a public service called the Cantonal Prosecution Office. This office is an intermediary between creditors and debtors. He registers the prosecution requisitions. He is empowered to notify orders to pay, to receive objections and to execute seizures. It is the Office itself that naturally issues the extract from the prosecution office often requested in connection with the signing of a property rental contract.
Why must the extract from the prosecution office be requested?
You have found a new apartment for rent. Before collecting the keys and signing the rental contract, you will need to gather several documents from the rental file. Work contract and payslips will justify the regularity and level of your income, which must reach three times the amount of the rent. The owner will also require an extract from the prosecution office to ensure that you have no debts. If this were the case, he would logically be entitled to refuse to rent his apartment to you. If you have no outstanding debt, the extract from the prosecution office will be blank and may be considered as a certificate of non-prosecution.
