Moving to Switzerland requires skill. Not only because of the distance, but also because of the non-EU nature of the country. From customs procedures to planning trips through mountainous terrain. We know exactly what to look out for.
An international move starts with good preparation. Therefore, we schedule a personal meeting at your home. During this visit, we will look at your belongings, discuss your wishes and take stock of any special circumstances such as narrow mountain roads, toll roads or restrictions at Swiss apartment complexes.
We think of what you might not have thought of yet, so you can leave worry-free later.
On moving day, we work in a structured, professional and on schedule manner. Your belongings are carefully packed, protected from long distance and height differences, and safely loaded into our trucks. We take care of the proper paperwork and communicate with Swiss customs authorities. During transport we keep you informed, so you know where your belongings are and when everything will be delivered.
Even if you are moving to a hard-to-reach destination, such as a chalet in the mountains or a property on a narrow mountain pass, we will provide a solution. On site we deliver everything neatly, help with assembly and take back the packing materials. You don’t have to go after anything, everything is taken care of.

Switzerland is a Schengen country and not a member state of the European Union. Because of this, you can simply cross the border of Switzerland without needing a visa. However, when you move to Switzerland you must have a residence permit. The residence permit must be registered with a local office within 8 days of arriving in Switzerland. Getting a residence permit is not difficult. To qualify for a residence permit, you must prove that you can support yourself. This can be done very simply by submitting an employment contract, for example. So it is not difficult, but it is very important.
Switzerland is quite a bureaucratic country, so prepare yourself for a lot of paperwork. It is important that you have all the necessary documents. Make sure you collect these in time for your move to Switzerland. This will prevent a lot of stress. Below we have listed the required documents for you.
When you move to Switzerland and want to take your car with you, it must be exported in the Netherlands and imported into Switzerland. Your car will then get a Swiss license plate. It is important to import the car at a larger border crossing, such as the one near Basel. This is because then you can be sure that the customs in question have the proper authority. If you find this too much hassle, you can also choose to sell your car in the Netherlands and buy a new car in Switzerland.
When you are going to emigrate to Switzerland, it is important that you take out a new health insurance policy. The moment your plans are definite, it is wise to inform your insurer as soon as possible. Besides a new health insurance, it is also important that you let your pension fund know that you are emigrating.
