Billing schedule and payment terms
- Invoicing schedule for yearly tuition fees: 1st term invoice issued by the end of September; 2nd term invoice issued by the end of December; 3rd term invoice issued by the end of March. A complementary 3rd‑term activities invoice may be issued in June if required.
- Yearly tuition is billed term‑by‑term and must be paid according to the deadline shown on each invoice. If the payment deadline on an invoice is not met, the School may refuse the student access to classes or services until the situation is resolved and reminder fees will be applied.
- For students joining during the year: the enrolment fee and tuition for the full current term are due; tuition for remaining terms is due. If arrival occurs during the second half of a term, only 50% of the tuition for the current term is due. In case of departure or dismissal during a term, tuition and options fees for the interrupted term remain payable in full.
Boarding fees
- Boarding is not part of the school's day‑to‑day provision; IIL operates as a day school (no boarding fees apply).
Other costs and fees (charged in addition to tuition)
- Books and a flat rate for digital resources are billed separately.
- School supplies: the School provides some consumables for Primary students (flat rate invoiced); other supplies must be purchased by guardians as per the supplied lists.

- The re‑enrolment fee (CHF 900) is an advance on tuition and is not reimbursed after the re‑enrolment process; if re‑enrolment is cancelled after 15 June but before the first day of the school year, 20% of the yearly tuition is due and the CHF 900 is deducted from that amount.
- No general reduction in tuition or options fees is made for extended absences; in the event of departure or dismissal during a term, tuition for the interrupted term remains due in full.
- School meal fees: no general reduction for absence; a 50% reduction may be granted for school meals if a child is absent for a month or more on medical grounds.
- Extracurricular activities: no refunds for absence; for ECAs, specific billing and refund rules apply and ECAs are billed across specific instalments. Transport: annual enrolment is for the full academic year and, in general, cancellations are not reimbursed (50% may be due in specified cancellation cases).

Payment restrictions apply for payments originating from countries on official sanctions lists.
