Can I be self-employed in Switzerland?

EU / EFTA citizens (with the exception of Romania and Bulgaria) can become self-employed in Switzerland.

People from non-EU/EFTA countries can become self-employed in Switzerland under certain conditions.

For more information, please visit the Swiss SME portal (german).

Is my foreign driver's licence valid in Switzerland?

You may use your valid foreign driver's license in Switzerland for 12 months. After this period, you have to exchange your foreign driver's licence for a Swiss driver's licence at the road traffic office of your canton of residence.
