Europe – L-Permit „Short-term residents“
Short-term residents are foreign nationals who
reside in Switzerland for a limited period of time,
usually less than a year, for a certain purpose with
or without gainful employment.
EU-27/EFTA nationals are entitled to this permit
provided they are in possession of an employment
contract valid from three up to twelve months.
Employment contracts of less than 3 months’
duration within a calendar year are not subject to a
permit but are regulated via a registration
procedure. The period of validity of the permit is
identical to the term of the employment contract. It
can be extended for a total period of less than
twelve months. Provided the new quota has not
been exhausted, the permit can be renewed after
an overall stay of one year without foreign nationals
having to interrupt their residence in Switzerland. L
EU/EFTA permits without gainful employment are
granted to job seekers from all EU/EFTA states.
However, this practice does not create an
entitlement to social insurance.

year

Europe – B-Permit „Resident foreign nationals“
Resident foreign nationals are foreign nationals
who reside in Switzerland for a longer period of
time for a certain purpose, with or without gainful
employment.
The residence permit for EU/EFTA nationals is valid
for five years. It is issued if the foreign national is in
possession of an employment contract of at least
twelve months’ duration or of unlimited duration.
The residence permit will be renewed for another
five years if the foreign national satisfies the
requirements. First-time renewal of the permit can
be limited to one year, however, if the holder has
been involuntarily unemployed for more than twelve
consecutive months. Nationals from all EU/EFTA
member states without gainful employment are
entitled to a B permit if they can prove they have
sufficient financial means and adequate health and
accident insurance.

for more than 1 year

Europe – C-Permit „Settled foreign nationals“
Settled foreign nationals are foreign nationals who have
been granted a settlement permit after five or ten years’
residence in Switzerland. The right to settle in Switzerland
is not subject to any time restrictions or conditions. The
Federal Office for Migration (FOM) determines the earliest
date from which the competent national authorities may
grant settlement permits.
In the case of EU/EFTA nationals, the issue of settlement
permits is governed by the provisions of the Foreign
Nationals and Integration Act and the settlement treaties.
This is because the Free Movement of Persons Agreement
does not contain any provisions relating to settlement
permits. EU-17 (except Cyprus and Malta) and EFTA
nationals are granted settlement permits pursuant to
settlement treaties or reciprocal agreements after five
years’ regular and uninterrupted residence in Switzerland.
For Cyprus, Malta, the EU-8 member states, Romania,
Bulgaria and Croatia there are no such treaties.
C-Permit In a nutshell
What is it for? Settled foreign nationals who have
lived in Switzerland for five or ten
years
Who needs to organize

Where to get it? Migration Office
When to get it? After B-Permit expires and
Migration office grants you a C-
Permit.
Validity 5-10 years
Documents needed • Expired B-Permit
• Permission from migration office
Europe – G-Permit „Cross-border commuters“
Cross-border commuters are foreign nationals who
are resident in a foreign border zone and are gainfully
employed within the neighbouring border zone of
Switzerland. The term “border zone” describes the
regions which have been fixed in cross-border
commuter treaties concluded between Switzerland
and its neighbouring countries. Cross-border
commuters must return to their main place of
residence abroad at least once a week.
Cross-border commuters from EU-27/EFTA member
states are granted professional and geographical
mobility. No border zones exist for them anymore.
These persons may live anywhere in the EU-27/EFTA
region and work anywhere in Switzerland provided that
they return to their place of residence abroad once a
week. The EU/EFTA cross-border commuter permit is
valid for five years in the case of a fixed-term
employment contract valid for more than one year or in
the case of a permanent employment contract. If a
fixed-term employment contract is valid for less than a
year but for more than three months, the period of
validity of the cross-border commuter permit is
identical to the duration of this employment contract. If
the period of employment is less than three months,
then no work permit is needed but the notification
procedure applies.
G-Permit In a nutshell
What is it for? People who have their residence
abroad, but work in Switzerland.

back to their home at least once a
week, i.e. over the weekend)

  • 5. Europe – L-Permit „Short-term residents“ Short-term residents are foreign nationals who reside in Switzerland for a limited period of time, usually less than a year, for a certain purpose with or without gainful employment. EU-27/EFTA nationals are entitled to this permit provided they are in possession of an employment contract valid from three up to twelve months. Employment contracts of less than 3 months’ duration within a calendar year are not subject to a permit but are regulated via a registration procedure. The period of validity of the permit is identical to the term of the employment contract. It can be extended for a total period of less than twelve months. Provided the new quota has not been exhausted, the permit can be renewed after an overall stay of one year without foreign nationals having to interrupt their residence in Switzerland. L EU/EFTA permits without gainful employment are granted to job seekers from all EU/EFTA states. However, this practice does not create an entitlement to social insurance. L-Permit In a nutshell What is it for? Short-term contracts for less than 1 year Who needs to organize it? The employee Where to get it? Local town hall When to get it? Within 14 days of arrival in Switzerland Validity 1 year or less Documents needed • Employment contract • Passport • Passport picture • Rental agreement
  • 6. Europe – B-Permit „Resident foreign nationals“ Resident foreign nationals are foreign nationals who reside in Switzerland for a longer period of time for a certain purpose, with or without gainful employment. The residence permit for EU/EFTA nationals is valid for five years. It is issued if the foreign national is in possession of an employment contract of at least twelve months’ duration or of unlimited duration. The residence permit will be renewed for another five years if the foreign national satisfies the requirements. First-time renewal of the permit can be limited to one year, however, if the holder has been involuntarily unemployed for more than twelve consecutive months. Nationals from all EU/EFTA member states without gainful employment are entitled to a B permit if they can prove they have sufficient financial means and adequate health and accident insurance. B-Permit In a nutshell What is it for? Long-term- and unlimited contracts for more than 1 year Who needs to organize it? The employee Where to get it? Local town hall When to get it? Within 14 days of arrival in Switzerland Validity 5 years Documents needed • Employment contract • Passport • Passport picture • Rental agreement
  • 7. Europe – C-Permit „Settled foreign nationals“ Settled foreign nationals are foreign nationals who have been granted a settlement permit after five or ten years’ residence in Switzerland. The right to settle in Switzerland is not subject to any time restrictions or conditions. The Federal Office for Migration (FOM) determines the earliest date from which the competent national authorities may grant settlement permits. In the case of EU/EFTA nationals, the issue of settlement permits is governed by the provisions of the Foreign Nationals and Integration Act and the settlement treaties. This is because the Free Movement of Persons Agreement does not contain any provisions relating to settlement permits. EU-17 (except Cyprus and Malta) and EFTA nationals are granted settlement permits pursuant to settlement treaties or reciprocal agreements after five years’ regular and uninterrupted residence in Switzerland. For Cyprus, Malta, the EU-8 member states, Romania, Bulgaria and Croatia there are no such treaties. C-Permit In a nutshell What is it for? Settled foreign nationals who have lived in Switzerland for five or ten years Who needs to organize it? The employee Where to get it? Migration Office When to get it? After B-Permit expires and Migration office grants you a C- Permit. Validity 5-10 years Documents needed • Expired B-Permit • Permission from migration office
  • 8. Europe – G-Permit „Cross-border commuters“ Cross-border commuters are foreign nationals who are resident in a foreign border zone and are gainfully employed within the neighbouring border zone of Switzerland. The term “border zone” describes the regions which have been fixed in cross-border commuter treaties concluded between Switzerland and its neighbouring countries. Cross-border commuters must return to their main place of residence abroad at least once a week. Cross-border commuters from EU-27/EFTA member states are granted professional and geographical mobility. No border zones exist for them anymore. These persons may live anywhere in the EU-27/EFTA region and work anywhere in Switzerland provided that they return to their place of residence abroad once a week. The EU/EFTA cross-border commuter permit is valid for five years in the case of a fixed-term employment contract valid for more than one year or in the case of a permanent employment contract. If a fixed-term employment contract is valid for less than a year but for more than three months, the period of validity of the cross-border commuter permit is identical to the duration of this employment contract. If the period of employment is less than three months, then no work permit is needed but the notification procedure applies. G-Permit In a nutshell What is it for? People who have their residence abroad, but work in Switzerland. („Residency“ = they need to go back to their home at least once a week, i.e. over the weekend) Who needs to organize it? The employer. Where to get it?
