There are upsides and downsides to moving to another country but young and single I'd do it.Comment

Thanks and True
Actually I prefer to be in UK if the contract market was how it was few years back, but my current contract is only for few more months with no scope for extension so I will be back in market in 2021.
The lure of security of a perm offer in uncertain times is the influencer here. Normally it takes me few weeks between roles, but it took me several months to get my current contract role during covid and I do not know how the state of UK market will be next year.Comment

If you leave with the intention of never coming back, then you'll be out of the UK tax system from day 1, with residency partially that tax year in the UK, partially in Switzerland. Otherwise, you are only UK tax exempt of each full tax year you are not resident in the UK.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

It's not as obvious as in London).Comment

I know this is a contractor forum but sometimes there are more important things than money. If you are single then go for it, it will be a great experience.Comment
