fedpol Ordinance on the Data Standard for the Money Laundering Reporting Office Switzerland Information System (MLDSO) specifies which parties are required to use the goAML information system and what technical requirements apply when submitting a report.

• Procedure for submitting a termination of business relationship notification

  As of 1 January 2023, financial intermediaries may, under certain conditions, terminate a business relationship that was the subject of an STR or SAR – regardless of whether the report was made pursuant to Art. 9 para. 1 let. a AMLA or Art. 305ter para. 2 SCC – upon expiry of a period of 40 working days following the date of receipt indicated on the acknowledgement receipt of the STR/SAR.

  Financial intermediaries must notify MROS without delay if they terminate a business relationship previously reported to MROS.

  This provision does not apply to business relationships mentioned in reports that have been forwarded to law enforcement authorities.

  The content of such termination notifications of a business relationship is set out in Art. 3 para. 1bis MROSO.

  Notifications submitted online: In goAML, create a ‘new message’ and select ‘CANCL/CANCT’. On the online form, enter the STR/SAR reference number, the affected accounts, the termination date, etc.

  Detailed instructions can be found under 'Procedure for notifying termination notification of a business relationship pursuant to Art. 9b AMLA – Entering a CANCL/CANCT report’.
