About the country

Switzerland is shorthand for stability and a high standard of living: a strong economy, dependable banks, tax treaties and, in several cantons, lump-sum taxation for wealthy residents. Residence for non-EU citizens comes through work, business or financial independence; the requirements are strict and quotas apply.

Worth knowing

!Very high living costs
!Strict residence requirements, quotas for non-EU citizens
!Complex bureaucracy (it differs by canton)
