    Need right company setup for Switzerland

    I would appreciate any advice on my situation. I am a U.S. citizen with permanent residence in Germany, but this not give me any benefit of the Swiss-EU agreement. I have signed a contract for six-months in Switzerland starting in September, but now I need to work out the visa issues. The Swiss embassy tells me I need an employer in order to work there.

    Any recommendations for a company who could put me on the payroll and ensure tax efficiency and profitable handling of my money?

    Thanks!

    I can appreciate where you're coming from! I'm Canadian, but based in Switzerland and I know exactly how complicated it is!! I sub-contract under a management company, and that's how I got my permit. But in your case, if your contract is only a 6 monther, then that's only around 120 work days. There is a permit called the L-120 permit that has no quotas/no restrictions on nationality and it is a permit that allows you to be in Switzerland for 120 days within a calendar year PROVIDED that you maintain your domicile in Germany (or America....just anywhere outside Switzerland).

    I'm thinking of leaving Switzerland soon, so if your contract is in Zurich, I might be able to propose a very slick and stylish apartment for your needs!!

    Contact me offline if you need more info.
