German term or phrase: Abrechnungsformular
Letter from Swiss VAT authorities to a company confirming VAT registration. Below the signature at the foot of the letter it says "- Muster-Abrechnungsformular oder Abrechnungsformular mit Doppel". Is Abrechnung the Swiss German for VAT return? If not, then what does it mean. "Payroll form" simply doesn't make sense in the context.
