🇨🇭 Visas et immigration — Switzerland

Détails du visa

Switzerland does not offer a digital nomad visa or golden visa. Non-EU/EFTA nationals seeking to work in or manage a Swiss company need a work permit, which is subject to annual quotas. The L permit (short-term, up to 12 months) and B permit (residence, renewable annually) are available but require employer sponsorship and demonstration that no suitable Swiss or EU candidate is available. Self-employed permits are difficult to obtain — applicants must demonstrate that the business creates jobs and benefits the Swiss economy. EU/EFTA nationals benefit from the bilateral agreements and can obtain permits more easily. Swiss permanent residency (C permit) typically requires 10 years of residence.
