Can i work in switzerland if i have a workpermit in UK?

Question

i hold a work permit visa in UK and presently i'm working in UK. i got the oppurtunity to work in Switzerland. Can i work in Switzerland without VISA or shud i apply for the visa?

Answer 1

YOU NEED A VISA AND A PERMIT THEY ARE NOT IN THE EUROPEAN UNION OF COUNTRIES

Answer 2

Yes you can but you will have to go to your local commune and register yourself with the Controle of enstrangers (basically the register of inhabitants). Thats what i found out last week when finding out about a new employee coming to work where i work..

hope this helped!

Answer 3

No, you need a Visa to enter Switzerland if you aren't an EU citizen (EU citizens just need their passports). Go to your local consulate/embassy.

The link above (an official govt. website) will help you find the nearest Embassy/Consulate to you.

Hope this has helped,

Answer 4

As Switzerland is not part of the EEC they have no reciprocal agreements with the UK as far as taking workers id=s concerned if you are not a British national I think this would make it doubly difficult . Have you contacted your prospective employers in Switzerland they would have the latest immigration Visa details that apply to you
