extract from debt collection office / debt collection information Explanation: Extract from the (XX) debt collection office (for "Betreibungsregisterauszug") and debt collection information (for "Betreibungsauskünfte") are the terms used in some municipalities of the Canton of Zug. OR use Extract from debt collection register, a term used in the Swiss eGovernment Portal (ch.ch) Notes: i) The usual (Swiss) German source term is "Betreibungsregisterauszug" ii) A search in admin.ch (the official site of the Swiss Confederation) failed to yield a pertinent result. Neither does the Jurivoc thesaurus of the Swiss Federal Supreme Court offer an English translation or equivalent. |

debt collection (history) report Explanation: This is not a term I've ever puzzled over, but it sounds like what you're talking about is a kind of debt collection history. Since this function is normally served by a credit report in the US, why not call it a "debt collection report" or a "debt collection history report"? |
