Thanks for watching!
(NEW) Here's the new updated video about "Moving to Switzerland" 🇨🇭👍🏻:

What countries should I cover next?😄
I don't know about all the other advantages of living in Switzerland listed here, but the flag sure is a big plus.
Flag?
@@lisajackson6862 Look closely at the flag 🇨🇭
Was where Red Cross was founded.
That "flag joke/reference" Is Getting Old!!!
Haha good one
Been a couple of times to Switzerland and I can say that cleanliness, natural beauty and public transports are top notch, latter being the best I’ve ever been.
Just moved here today lmao im seeing this vídeo 2 late 😂
Looking to move to Switzerland for work. The videos are super informative, thank you!
Sure! You're more than welcome :)
Hi bro did u move to swiss
unless you are from direct european discend and european, they dont want you there. Go somewhere else.
Your videos are gold, thank you for all your efforts!
Ai videos are gold?
Thank you for this fantastic information ❤
The income is a bit misleading 4300 is definitely not the lowest. I am in my type of job good payed but am still lower than this. Further important is to say the income which you named is Brutto (pre-tax). So a lot of money will be used to pay your taxes. Further you have to remember in a lot of places you pay up to 2 monthly loans for taxes. Of course there are great places for low taxes (Lucern, Zug) and great places for high loans (Zurich). But the rest of the video I can mostly agree with and I think Switzerland is definitely a great country to live in
can I get unskilled work there
@@AbayinehMekonnt of course. Depending on the company and your set of skills and your potential to grow there are many options. Just don’t expect to get the same salary (not impossible but unlikely)
getting visa to Swiss is very difficulty
I love this vídeo.
can you also make a video about Fribourg city, please ?. I just found your channel and happy to follow you
Thank you for your idea!
Thanks ❤❤
Thanks for you
Thank you too!
Having relocated in Zurich 22 years ago, I confirm that 13 points you listed are true. Only one is really wrong : swiss food ! 😂 That's only my personal opinion.
What kind of nasty shit do you eat, then?
I like your videos from Switzerland and I think yout accent is cool, greetings from Argentina
Thank you Julian! A warm welcome to this channel! Best regards go Argentina!👍🏻
In a nutshell Switzerland is Disneyland destination for the expat super rich. Btw, that's the reason why its largest city is called Zu-rich (Swiss German translation of "too rich"). 😎
Yep. I fantasize about being wealthy so I can move to Switzerland!
😅😅😅😅
No such thing as too rich
It's not that easy with the high income and low taxes.
As a school leaver, I earned just 3500 per month in my first job (bicycle mechanic). It sound's like much, but that was before all the deductions (old-age pension, social security, etc.) and then it was about 3200.
In addition, there is about one month's direct federal tax every year (and no, not everyone earns 13 months' wages here).
And a fact is that if you live in a canton where the taxes are low (Zug) the rent for houses/apartments are directly much higher for example for a 2 1/2 room 2000.-.
In addition, living in Switzerland is generally very expensive.
Let's take a look at MC Donalds as a simple example - a normal cheeseburger costs 2.90 here, which is over 1.00 more expensive than in our neighbouring countries. the same applies, of course, to all food, especially meat.
Also care products are almost twice as expensive in Switzerland as in the neighbouring EU countries (that's why it's a routine for many Swiss to travel abroad to shop there twice a year, which is frowned upon by some people).
We also pay twice for our rubbish disposal (once we have to buy fee bags or tokens so that the rubbish is collected at all and on top of that there is the annual disposal tax. Per 35 litres of waste, the bag costs about 2.50 euros.
Nothing is free in Switzerland (public transport, compulsory insurance, electricity, water, legal protection and the list goes on).
An example:
A person earns 4500.- without deductions 4100 with deductions.
Rent: 1500.-
Health insurance: 300.-
Taxes per month: 400.-
Electricity and water: 200.-
Locomotion: 350.-
Food: 400.-
Internet/TV 160.-
and there would be many more small things (netflix etc etc)

So true. Listen to this guy.

Wow man, I seriously was thinking about working there however with all of this, seems like even Switzerland isn't worth it. I guess as a new generation we can't make good money anywhere
Thank u for your point of view
@SwissMapper I've studied economics for my undergrad and a master's in finance and I wasn't earning 7k working in finance for Credit Suisse
Im here living in 🇨🇭😍
You might risk ending up as a lonely person if you move to Switzerland, if your social skills are not excellent. Swiss people are not very open and most of them are not looking for new friends. This is the experience many immigrants made. Portugese meet with other portugese, turkish meet with other turkish, Germans meet with other Germans in their free time. Don't be surprised, I warned you.
What about indian or chinese people
Cool
Depends how well you speak the local language, if you're speaking English only be prepared to have a social circle made-up of expats.
+ it's never easy to make friends in a new country
@@adammorra3813Not allt of indian or chinese people immigrate to Switzerland
If youre in Switzerland youre expected to have money.
Youre not expected to be rich.
Far from it!
But youre expected to have spare money and be able to afford things.
Or well... the economy expects that.
you might add that you do not have to pay taxes on capital gain e.i. from stocks.
Me and my wife are planning to move to Zurich, she is a nurse and I am a freelance home painter/decorator. Do you know if there is an open vocational academy in Switzerland that I can do a course from distance? I know there is an open university... Just because I know the Swiss value people that have studied there and I was thinking of doing a painting course when I'm there. Thanks!!
Switzerland does alot of online schoolibg and schools are most of the time digetal and every kid gets an Ipad or laptop, Idk about adults but my brother who is in uni is doing it online and im also online schooled. But there is alot of ppl you can reach out to that can help you finde the right school for you.(Frelancers are btw really known to visit schools every few mobths)
are you european? Full blooded european? If not, they dont want you there.
Greets from Olten🇨🇭😍🇨🇭😍
Looking to move to Germany or Switzerland but not sure what the easiest route is as a young individual. No long work history or university/college yet. Would really like some advice on how I can pivot my life to get there one day. I was thinking of teaching English but not sure how sought after it is
Teaching English is a good idea, but you probably need to know a bit of German. Also you need some Diploma or higher Education for this :)
@@kurokiniro I’m prepared to learn german and become fluent with my girlfriend. She is learning psychology! Also willing to get a degree and certification
@@Cosmolax Then it should not be a problem at all to move to Switzerland ^^
Most young people spoke fluent English when I was travelling through Switzerland in 2016. Don’t know how much of a market there is for ESL teachers.
@@bisonbro7He probably need to teach on a school.
If you plan to move to a canton where you pay almost no taxes: you have to be very rich. In the cantons you pay a lot you will have a lot of services.
What do you mean ? Schwyz and Zug, for example, have very low tax rates. What services aren't available on these places, or costs more compared to high tax cantons ?
@@bisonbro7 Great. Two Cantons with very few inhabitants and cities with what 2 or 3 cities with 20-30,000 inhabitants? I know that you pay to other Cantons like the one I live in. I don't know what you pay to the cities of Zürich of Lucerne but I can tell how it is here in the city of Bern: We pay for museums, parks, swimming pools, cultural events, centers for young people, offers for parents, elderly, immigrants. We pay for building parking lots, streets, security, cleaning of the streets and many things more. And everywhere you go you see cars from other Cantons. They would never live in Bern because we are crazy to pay all these taxes. But if a music festival, a sport event, a swimming pool, a market, an information event for parents... is hold and it's affordable or even free they come and they never seem to realize that someone pays for it. And we also paid for the new traffic system that allows ambulances to better reach the university hospital where people from everywhere come. And we expanded the public traffic net for all those coming to the university by train.
And as I live in the city of the government I also see the streets and the cleaning up after a demonstration and how many police officers we have to employ. And how many buildings are rented by the government or by national headquarters of federations like the ones of the university directors, the bakers, the car drivers and other organizations who don't pay taxes.
We have kindergartens where none of the children speaks German at home. You cannot compare the situation and the public service needed.
@@DramaQueenMalena stop, stop! With one exception (Ka-We-De), outdoor pools in the city of Bern are free of charge.
The enumeration of what "you" (i.e. the city of Bern) pays for everything is ultimately the same as what other cities or communities have to bear.
Be honest, right now in the city of Bern, how often have you looked at the Bernese Oberland with the beautiful treetops? There are also people living there who work/pay for the preservation of nature that you look at and enjoy. Especially when it comes to community, we are not usually the ones who put everything on the gold scales.
But in terms of taxes, you'll certainly get off better in some other cantons/communities, whether you then have the same landscape, culturally is another question besides what your own claims are.
@@bisonbro7 in Zug for example you can easily have to pay 2 million for a 2 1/2 room appartment
😃
:)
Well done. I learned nothing new but YOU presented everyrhing in an informative and enjoyable manner. Are you swiss?
Thanks Christina! Yes, I'm Swiss (from Zurich). Are you Swiss too? Warm welcome to this channel!
@@MovingAbroad yes but i was born in sweden. Swiss husband and swiss children!
@@christinakjellberg3545 ah that perfect👌🏻 🇨🇭🇸🇪
I really want to move into this country and i know its not easy...is there any chance for front end developers to move there,is there lot of competition in that field?
Probably there are some free positions. Just take a loon at the internet :)
@@MovingAbroad allrighty.
If you learn GoLang you can call yourself a full stack developer and companies will hunt you down in switzerland. but even as a front end developer it's fairly easy to find a job here.
Developers are highly sought after in Switzerland. Even the Federal Office of Information Technology, Systems and Telecommunication is hiring. Basic knowledge in either German, French or Italian language is required though.
BTW, I subscribed
While political neutrality is great, it also means we're an unreliable ally.
If you want to be harsh, rude but accurate, "politically neutral" effectivly means "We will make agreements, or pull out of agreements whenever we feel like it. And we will make agreements with people no matter if, or why, you like them or not."
I don't see a problem... That's how neutrality works
You forget about the "hidden taxes" such as medical insurance, which depending of family size and location can cost up to 2000Fr a month. I could go on but there is no space here.
I've been living in Switzerland since the mid-2000s and love it. Höpp Schwyz!
I'm happy that you feel comfortable here.
There r for free as well like many many newspapers or plenty countless water-drinking publics etc etc etc
🙋🏻♀️💕🇨🇭✨✨✨✨✨👍👍
How do you spell that county that pays such low taxes?
There 2 # 7's ...so that's 15 upsides! Woo hoo!
Been to switzerland a few times, awesome well organized country, the only issue that they have is meat, is expensive and escarse,
Meat is expensive, right, rare sounds like we don't have enough. That's not the case, but local meat is more expensive, and production is also limited due to our size.
But honestly, who needs a steak on their plate every day?
Can u do a video of average salary of various jobs do it more 30 t0 40 salary
You can see all the médium salaries on internet. Also the salary of the conseiller fédéral wich is fch 50.000/ month !!.
@@danielbarras3200 i think it is 50000 a year! I am from Switzerland!
@@ritadatwyler3498I was talking of the salaries of the conseil fédéral each one get fch 50.000/ month and 100.000/year for the président + car + chauffeur+ abonnement général 1et class for the train !!
C'est bien !! Very good, sehr gut, muy bien !!
@@danielbarras3200 ok
The one reason not to move to Switzerland is the people. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 especially if you are an extrovert who enjoy the company of other people.
thats my hometown at 6:20
I live in Baar
I so much appreciated the great effort you made. Am in UAE now I want to move to Europe country. Am really convinced with your information thank you sir.
well we dont want you here, go somewhere else
...very money driven
USA: 👍🤑👍
Dream country.
Never been there, still not sure if it's real.
Too expensive.
Not warm, friendly people. Rather reserved.
Do I need a visa with my American passport
europe doesnt want more foreigners. stay where you are or go somewhere else other than europe
No
It's better if you don't move. For your own safety.
@@THEMRblackboy7thst I already came in Switzerland. You are late
Cargill is an American company.
and BHP is Australian
I kept hearing Texas when you were talking about the high taxes, which is ironic because taxes are low in Texas.
What does low mean? I mean, on the one hand, Switzerland has a very low VAT rate (value added tax) compared to the surrounding countries, on the other hand, it has a low tax rate in general.
1 more
You will never attend wars
Very good content, but why the horrible background noise? Skip it and don't talk so quickly. Make a little pause between the sentences. And it would be perfect!😅.
As a swiss person i can say i feel like we have really everything we need. The only thing bad is, that there are a lot of conservative people which don't acknowledge people from other countries. But it is more on the countryside.
Usually how it is in most country sides
As German, living in the Emmental I can agree but there are also many open minded people.
Swiss people in general are a bit closed but when you meet them more often you can build good friendships!
Japan is unbeatable in public transport.
Especially considering its size.
But Switzerland, while not able to beat Japan, is also unbeatable in the efficiency and quality of their public transport.
Solid Nr 2.
Only beaten by, Japan, the very best.
"Police State" so true ,so many sport cars and you can't go fast
Go to a track, boy
who is sponsoring this video???
Switzerland IS the best place to live in todays world.
15. its not in the EU
Zurich can not hold a candle to Vienna in terms of quality of life? Little strong there buddy, hey? Relax Dora
Wdym
@@MovingAbroad I mean that saying that “it can not hold a candle to it” is like saying Zurich is not in the same league or class as Vienna. This is Zurich, Switzerland we are talking about, not Tegucigalpa. There are few paradises like Zurich in terms of a city to live. Zurich doesn’t have to prove itself to anyone.
Yeah… but the high wages is a big downside 👎🏻
It means we have to pay Swiss hires that much.
if you are looking for true relationship and true people.. avoid geneva.
Thanks.
Im moving away in a few months,
@@adammorra3813 what happened to you ?
Can you tell me why avoid geneva ?
@@hieudo9993 it's written above dude
womens recieve 3500chf and most mens 4000-4400chf!!
above 5500 you need to hav qualifikations!!
a yea forgot, alot hav more like,,
women 2700chf and men 3600chf
What? Isn't that illegal??
I dont know if you are prepared to do an research the most happiest people are living in the poorest countries...
If you take a closer look the meaning of live is making money and all shape itself around that.How can you live without?!
Excuse me, what the fuck.
@@TitaniumTronic can you articulate?
A single person has to pay around 1 paycheck a year for taxes
Yea but they get paid for like 13 months... Still lower than taxes in Deutscheand too!
Pretty cheap
Hello I watch you video very good I'm new coming to liveing in Switzerland in zurich but I don't speak Deutsch learning Deutsch language school is very expensive 900 CHF to 1550 How to pay this im a House wife anything can Help How to learn Deutsch easily to live there thank you so much Appreciated 👍🎶🙏🙏
Sure - just learn it on TH-cam. There are so many videos about learning German
@@MovingAbroad but we speek Swiss German, that's not so easy!
@@ritadatwyler3498 Do you speak standard german in formal and business settings?
@@tanyarawat9700 sure, we learn german Language in School!
If you are still searching, I live near Zürich in Winterthur, we could get in contact if you want. It would also help me improve my english.
Been there twice myself, and is my #1 country of choice to live in but I'm not wealthy enough to get residency there. At least I think, plus with all of the Draconian vaxx mandates there and other surrounding countries kinda puts the Kibosh on that for me as well. Maybe someday in this world-
vaccines are important for health so it makes sense they have mandates. hope that cleared it up :)
Same here! If I were rich, I’d move to Switzerland! I can dream about it.
Sorry, i am a Swiss Woman, but so nice, how you speek about my Country is it not! It was, when i was young! The Population grew up to high, for my small Country! Migration is to much, few Jobs and everything is very expensiv too! I am living now in Spain, like so many other Swiss Peopel!
One day you will come back to Switzerland.
@@adammorra3813 no, only for visit my kids! I don't geht inough money per month, to live in my Country. And it is to cold!
@@ritadatwyler3498 Switzerland is no longer cold with the heat waves, believe me. And what about your family and friends here? Switzerland pay is much higher than other EU countries and more opportunities.
@@adammorra3813 do u feel pain in my bones Ort you? I am living in Spain, with 1000 Franks, in switzerland never possibel! My Healt insurence was 520 Franks for a Month! I was working very Hard Up until 61 years old! It's enough! I prefer not to work, until daeth!
I feel the pain! Sorry, i have german language on!
Impossible to focus on the informations with this loud and impossible "music". Bye bye.

05:00 political neutrality... Switzerland is NOT neutral anymore.
in what way?
@@betiedu Military (US influence) and politics (strong EU & US influence).
@@marcomarco7099 oh well to be true, it hasn't been neutral for a long time now, it's only neutral on the surface
@@betiedu Exact. Since 30 yr Switzerland is loosing piece after piece he's neutrality.
Without tell,Switerland help US and cuban relation also Iran an the us. Of course we are on the Occident part of the world. Has agréments with the China, India, Russia. Etc..etc..
Don't move here......we're already full.
Too bad im moving
@@adammorra3813 No!....Stay where you are!
@@gespiri bro i already moved here 2 years ago. The country is hard to adjust to socially. Dont worry, im moving out in a few months. Switzerland works for Swiss people, not easy for foreigners.
@@adammorra3813 Hey man, I was just kidding. I'm also a foreigner here married to a Swiss. I agree with your experience.
If you happen to be a loner like me, then it works great walking the mountains, trading from home.
It will not work if you're more of a social person since the Swiss are very reserved and difficult with language barriers. GL!
@@gespiri I am not a social person that much but it still does not work. I am by myself alone here, you at least have a spouse. I made friends with 2 expats and they both moved away already! Now I can't wait to get out of here. It's a beautiful country but I like having purpose in my community and knowing where I belong. Good for you that it's worked out for you so far.
full of lies , real switzerland isn't like that.
We don’t need to have more people moving here, we have enough foreigners already, and we are too small a country to kerp cramming more people in. Please understand that.
Your country is looking for people to work. You are the last person I will refer to when moving there. More than 200k Croatians alone moved in germany last year for work let alone other nations. Who are you to tell me where to move, you hypocrite.
@VJ P there was nothing racist about his comment. He was just concerned with overwhelming large numbers of people trying to move in a tiny european country which is making cost of living very expensive even for the natives.
@@alystero8838 Switzerland's citizens lifespan is very large because of the high incomes that results people living longer and people moving there doesn't have any effects on the cost of life. It's the country because of it's very successful economy and Switzerland is the centre of all the banking and finances in the world. There is a lot of old people in Switzerland and it needs people for work.
You country thrives thanks to the fact that it imports skilled workers from abroad, man.
Your country is literally rich because of immigrants migrating further strengthening your economy...
Do not under any circumstances move to Switzerland. Years ago I accidentally impregnated a Swiss girl and I now live here. It is mind bendingly dull and uncultured. I haven't heard live music since my mother's funeral.
Why dont you guys move
