Work permit Switzerland
In principle, nationals of EU and EFTA states have the right to travel to Switzerland, to stay there and to engage in gainful employment.
"The Agreement on the Free Movement of Persons" between Switzerland and the EU/EFTA states provides for the following conditions with regard to this:
EU-15/EFTA citizens and citizens of Malta and Cyprus no longer require a permit for stays and employment of up to three months or 90 working days per calendar year. Self-employed service providers and posted employees (citizens of third countries must have been lawfully admitted to the EU/EFTA labour market for at least 12 months) may also for a total of 90 working days per calendar year render cross-border services in Switzerland. For this group of people there is an obligation to register any stays of a duration of more than 8 days in advance. This obligation to register must in principle be complied with.
Registration is to be made online through the free-of-charge registration service.
Employees who are members of EU-8 nations require from the first day of employment a work and residence permit, even if their employment is of a shorter duration than 3 months.
