- Marrying someone from another country often comes with a whole bunch of rights (and obligations), which often lead to a lot of questions. In this video I'll be answering some questions about what happens if you marry a Swiss, regarding the permission to move to and work in Switzerland, obtaining a Swiss passport, buying real estate here and more. Enjoy : )

You are so clear and informative. Thank you.
Thank you . I truly wish for you greater wealth and success in every possible way.
very insightful highlighting on spousal issues, thanks for good job.
I've been living in Switzerland for a few years, interesting video
Very interesting video. Thank you so much for sharing
I subscribed. Informative video. Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦
Hi. How's the financial situation in Canada? Would it be wise to move there? 🤔 been hearing that inflation is too high, living is getting difficult there.
Thank you!! Greetings back to Canada - beautiful country, I cannot wait to visit it again!
Great effort
Funny, the US can tax its citizens abroad, but the US finds it impossible to tax billionaires. What hypocrisy.
Maybe I'm a spoil-sport but it also has to be said. The Foreign Office does background checks. If you have a criminal record, you may be denied entry although you're married to a Swiss. It depends on the nature of crime you have committed. Even EU citizens who have a bilateral agreement with us are sometimes refused. Some people think that we don't know if they still receive a permit, but we always know. It's only a question of tolerance and surveillance if it's not a capital crime.
Another thing is the parent issue. Depending on their age, they have to prove they own the funds to sustain themselves, or you have to pledge for them. That's for medical costs. They are astronomous and if these people fall ill, they have to foot those bills. Health insurances may refuse to insure them if they have never lived and financially contributed before. Hence, you will have to evidence a minimum of approx CHF 80'000.-- of funds frozen for eventual medical bills. Without that, and if you are not wealthy enough, they won't get a permit.
Please take this from somebody who has worked at the Foreign Office and issued permits herself.
Very true! Marriage itself it definitely not a free pass.
Great channel 😊 You are right. I married my Filipino husband last year and he has B permission now. He has permission to work and found a work already. A tip to all who want marry in Switzerland and live here: Study the language already in your home country. Whithout the language here you are lost and if you don't live in places like Zürich then the people really can't speak and understand english, like here in canton Thurgau. Also for your work you need at least Level B2 in german. My husband needs C2 because he is teacher. Also you need a lot money when you bring your partner here. Keep that in mind. Greetings Susanne
Thank you!! Also for sharing your experiences, I definitely agree on your advice!
Hallo my name is Sushma I am from Swiss, I live in India since 2008 because of my parents my mother is Swiss and my father is Indian now I married in 2018 with a Indian guy now we want to shift in Swiss with my 2 child and my husband also work and all things can you guide me personally give me some tips. Thanking you
Hi. It depends if you have the Swiss nationality already or not. If so, it will be a lot easier to move to Switzerland with your husband and children. If you do kot yet have the Swiss citizenship, you should contact a Swiss consulate near you and find out what the steps are to get it.
Thank you. Please talk about immigration through investment in Switzerland, for non European people.
I'll be interested in this as well.
Well , check the other Countrys like France , Germany England or Netherlands , Brussel become slowly a Nacro state because of NON European immigration.
hello , I just discovered your channel , and i love it , so helpful , I have a question for you : I am Algerian and i study Medicine in Istanbul turkey , i would like to know is it possible for me to do my specialty ( residency programm) in switzerland ? and will it help me have a C permit after 5 years ? For instance i speack fluently 4 languages incluidng French and english.
Thank you! To study here you will have to apply for a program (masters / post doc) at the university you want to attend and prove that you fulfill all conditions and were accepted by the school. The acceptance depends on a few factors (previous studies, language skills, providing necessary financial means etc.). Once accepted you apply for a visa here.
As for the C permit: it definitely helps if you speak French and English and studied in Switzerland. Normally you get a C permit after 10 years, unless married to a Swiss or proving that you are 'well integrated' (I have a video on that) and that you speak the language of your place of residence in Switzerland well enough. That will be French or German. Then you can get it after 5 years.
Wow, good answer! Please, please come here practicing!
The "physicians" here are ignorant, arrogant and do not care at all.
Great and concise video. Thanks! I have an additional question... If you marry a swiss as non EU citizen, how long does it take to get the resident permit that allows you to work once you get married? Thank you!
Thank you! There is no general answer to your question because it depends on where you request the permit (abroad: in which country; in Switzerland: in which canton), on where you get married (Switzerland or abroad) and on the individual case, f.e. if you need to hand in more documents, answer more questions etc. The best way to know is always to call the competent authority directly and ask how long it usually takes them.
@@AAA_AskAnAttorneythank you for answering!! :)
Of course, you are very welcome :).
nice one
How does a Canadian obtain a work visa in Switzerland?
This video saves you a few hundred $ talking to a lawyer. Thank you!
Thank you too! You are very welcome!
5 years…? After marriage..? Wow..how strict.
Yeah some otherwise people will just marry for benefits and then het divorced and then the partner can become a problem of the country. 5 years gives you time to learn the language and find a job. Besides you get a permit which allows you to work and do many things in the 5 years so it’s not like you are restricted from doing anything.
I always wondered if it's beneficial with taxation living in Switzerland if I make beyond 150k euro per year? Like how high would the bracket be in lets say Zürich? (a scandinavian EU citizen asking)
Hard to say because it depends on a lot of factors (employed/self-employed; married/single; kids/no kids; wealth etc.). There's a tax calculator for Zürich you could check out (www.zh.ch/de/steuern-finanzen/steuern/steuern-natuerliche-personen/steuererklaerung-natuerliche-personen/steuerrechner.html?calculatorId=income_assets). For a single person, who earns 150k a year, it estimates taxes of Fr. 32'000.- total (7'362.- federal tax) for 2023. But as I said this is a very generalized estimate, because it really depends on quite a few aspects. Still hope this is helpful to you :).
Very few women get married in Switzerland
Hello mam hope you fine and i wish you will be fine i have a question if your permission granted ?
You mentioned if you are an American citizen and in Switzerland you pay both countries taxes does it mean you file both countries w2 at the end of the year?
You have to declare your income and wealth in both countries, yes. Whether you actually pay taxes in the US as well when living in Switzerland depends on your income.
Hi, fine
Great content! So what's the tax rate if you earn 100'000 per year as an employee in Zurich? Around 30%?
This is hard to say because it depends on several factors (community in ZH, in which you live; married/single; kids/no kids; wealth, other types of income etc.). But there is a tax calculator for Zürich you can check out: www.zh.ch/de/steuern-finanzen/steuern/steuern-natuerliche-personen/steuererklaerung-natuerliche-personen/steuerrechner.html?calculatorId=income_assets. For a single person, earning 100k a year, it estimates taxes of about Fr. 16'300.- for 2024 (community of ZH tax, state and federal tax). But this is a generalized estimate, that really depends on a few aspects.
But ZH is known to have realtively low taxes 😉. 30% seems way too high to me (provided that's your only income).
@@AAA_AskAnAttorney Got it. Thanks a lot! :)
Hello, I'm Italian, currently living in Italy. I'd like to move to Switzerland without needing a job because I've got my own business, I make quite a lot of money trading into the FOREX market.
Here is my the question for you:
How much money should own or how much should I make annually in order to get the permission to live in Switzerland?
Thank you!
Hi! Since you are Italian (EU country citizen), there's no specific amount of income that you need to make. Instead you'll have to provide proof that you are self employed long-term with a business plan etc. Further you need to prove that you can financially support yourself, i.e. cover your costs here, so that there's no risk of you needing social welfare money. The costs of living here depend of course highly on where you're intending to live.
@@AAA_AskAnAttorney Merci vielmal!
Ma'am what will be the case for non eu citizen? @@AAA_AskAnAttorney
Non EU citizen would have to prove that their self employment serves the interests of the economy of Switzerland as a whole (f.e. by creating jobs here, strong demand of certain goods etc.)
@@AAA_AskAnAttorney thank you, Lara 😊
If married to a Swiss and the B permit is received, Can the Spouse bearing the B permit be permitted to travel to his/her native country for
holiday?
Yes, with a B permit travelling back to your native country is not an issue.
Hi, I am 32 years old, single and never married, finance professional with 5 years of professional experience. I want to marry a Swiss girl. Could you help? Please respond. Thank you
I was remember swiss guys who i know from Tandem. 😂😂😂😂❤
Can you collect your Swiss wife’s pension as a Widower if, when you live there, you were helped by public assistance? Do you have to pay back any assistance before you can collect on. The Pension?
In general public assistance will have to be paid back, yes. There are limits to how much though. It depends on a few different factors (amount of assistance, amount of pension, which community is in charge, what are your means of living & living expenses now, are you living in Switzerland or abroad etc.).
Thanks so much for this information. You are so kind to answer this for me. Thank you again.
Wow 😊😊😊😊
Everyone including myself is single all of a sudden 😂
I seems to have a question, I live abroad but my spouse, she is Swiss citizen we even have a child together also she is not currently employed after her child birth but she is filling for me to come leave with them? is that possible since she has no job currently?
Hi. I cannot tell you for sure, because I don't know all the facts of your case. But if your wife has been working before birth and if she's still employed and intends to work again soon, your chances are good. She mainly needs to provide proof that she can financially support you once you get to Switzerland (no risk of social aid).
@@AAA_AskAnAttorney thank you for the response,grateful
Und was ist, wenn ich als Schweizerin auswandere und im Ausland heirate? Zählen diese Punkte dann auch, falls ich wieder in die Schweiz kommen würde?
Ja genau, dann gilt grundsätzlich dasselbe. Entscheidend ist die Schweizer Staatsbürgerschaft.
Beim Rückzug in die Schweiz muss noch ein Gesuch um Familiennachzug gestellt werden.
@@AAA_AskAnAttorney Alles klar, vielen Dank 😁
is ther a dating site in switzerland?
+1
do you have some single swiss friend ? .....
If i was the Swiss government i wouldn’t be admitting more people into the country because there are enough people here already, this is not an anti-foreigner statement, this is purely based on the fact that there are already now 9,000,000 people living here. Enough for such a small country.
Is that easy after marrying with swiss and us and adopt her minor kids, the same way she adopt my kids and we live in Swiss as family?
Hi. Are you/your partner Swiss and one of you is a US citizen?
In general it is possible to adopt children of your spouse in Switzerland, but there's a few legal requirements that need to be fulfilled.
Hi Thank you for your immediate replay, sure we will connect to get more insight from you when the time will come. Appreciated your efforts to clear the fog.@@AAA_AskAnAttorney
When any men marry to swiss women in switzerland …does govt or embaasy inform about marrige to his parents in india or not ?
No, the parents are not informed from the Swiss authorities.
Did they do any verification from his parents
You need to hand in a birth certificate which states the name of both spouses parents, but there's no need to contact them.
Sometimes these parents knows everything about marrige …they just support theier son to first marry in swiss After some years the told there son to divorce swiss wife again marry in india ..and worts is that they don’t even informed india girl nd her family that their son is divorced nd having secound marrige with indian girl …they are doing this kind of fraud
I have no idea why TH-cam recommended this video, as I am not planning to marry a Swiss national but I do have questions. I am a U.S. Citizen and I am thinking of trying to relocate to Switzerland. First, I can speak basic German and French, will this help me to gain Swiss citizenship any faster than if I did not? Second, I have distant ancestry from Switzerland, specifically the village of Oberkulm, Aargau, although more than 8 generations back, is this taken into consideration? Third, will marrying a Swiss national support my efforts to gain citizenship? If yes to the preceding, can you advise me on how to impress a Swiss woman?
Speaking the language is definitely required to become a Swiss citizen, but there's other criteria too, such as the lenght of your stay in Switzerland. Your family roots go too far back with 8 generations to be taken into consideration. When married to a Swiss you can apply for the Swiss citizenship earlier (after 5 years), but you still need to meet the other criteria. Since impressing Swiss women is not my area of expertise, you'll have to find that out yourself ;)
Danke, Merci, Grazie, Engraziel@@AAA_AskAnAttorney
Mam Can you please say me that which German country is immigration Friendly Switzerland vs Germany vs Austria 🙏Mam in which country I can settle easily if I complete master's in UK and wanted to move to German speaking countries So, which country you suggest me to do job and then living for Long term 🙏 You are my Inspiration forever mam 🙏 please clarify my doubt mam 🙏 🙏🙏
Hi, I have never lived in Germany or Austria and did not study law there, so I cannot tell you the differences amongst these countries. But there might not be a general answer for your question, because it also depends on where you live within the country (city vs. countryside for example).
@@AAA_AskAnAttorney Mam My Target is to do Software job in Zurich or Bern or Basel or Geneva or Lugano Regions but in case if I can't find Job in Switzerland then I wanted to choose alternate German speaking Countries such as Germany,Austria Mam and Mam According to your Experience Which is Best Schengen Country to settle permanently for Life Long Mam 🙏I believe You are my Teacher Mam 🙏 I'm learning a lot through your videos Mam 🙏 Long live you Mam 🙏 I got UK Visa So, I'm going to study master's in Data Science mam and After Completing Master's I wanted to move to Europe mam🙏So, please advise best Schengen country to settle permanently Mam irrespective of City, villages I wanted to live High Quality of Life Mam So, please advise me Few best countries list which are their in your Mind According to your analysis Mam 🙏 you are my Inspiration forever Mam 🙏 Long live you Mam ☺️😊🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏
Having a high life quality depends on a lot of factors, regardless of the country. My advice is: Just see where you can find a job the easiest after your studies and try it there - and if you don't like it - change :).
@@AAA_AskAnAttorney Thank you so much mam and I was desperate to learn German language So, I was looking at German speaking countries but through your suggestion definitely I will try to search Job in UK itself as my first priority and Then I will try in European countries 🙏 but atleast once in a life I will meet you in next 5 years Mam 🙏 I will be keep following you forever and I'll keep learning a lot from you Mam 🙏 I'm from India and I'm going to UK within few days to study master's in Computer Science and After watching your videos then I started believing that You are my Teacher, Mentor for my Career mam 🙏 Long live you Mam 🙏☺️🙏😊🙏🙏🙏
