stdnum.ch.uid¶
UID (Unternehmens-Identifikationsnummer, Swiss business identifier).
The Swiss UID is used to uniquely identify businesses for taxation purposes. The number consists of a fixed “CHE” prefix, followed by 9 digits that are protected with a simple checksum.
This module only supports the “new” format that was introduced in 2011 which completely replaced the “old” 6-digit format in 2014.
