How can I emigrate to Switzerland as a German?
As a German citizen, you need a Swiss employment contract and tenancy agreement to register with the municipality. The employment contract confirms your employment and the tenancy agreement confirms your residential address in Switzerland. Both documents are essential for the registration process. As a self-employed person, you may also be able to register in the Emigrate to Switzerland. In this case, we recommend that you contact the migration office in your canton of residence at an early stage. As a self-employed person, you must, among other things, submit a business plan and prove that you can earn a living from your activity. Do you need support? We will be happy to help you: Contact form.
