Lawyer in Switzerland
One of the most stable and attractive countries for living and doing business is Switzerland. Among the advantages of this country: a stable economy, high standard of living, flexible tax system. In conditions of full-scale war, a fairly large number of Ukrainians chose Switzerland for forced emigration. That is why the services of a Ukrainian-speaking international lawyer are relevant for thousands of our fellow citizens.
Temporary protection and departure of Ukrainians to Switzerland: what to consider?
In 2025, the Swiss government introduced new rules for Ukrainians to obtain S status. In particular, we are talking about quite serious complications for persons wishing to obtain temporary protection. Among the innovations, only those Ukrainians who live in the so-called “disputed territories” or temporarily occupied territories can obtain S status. This is part of the legislative changes that provoked lengthy discussions. Thus, Ukrainians from regions fully controlled by the Ukrainian government lose the right to temporary protection.
There is also the possibility of immigration to Switzerland. This process requires an individual approach and careful preparation. The following factors should be taken as a basis:
- Purpose of moving.
- Economic model.
- Level of integration.
We recommend that you assess potential risks in advance (for example, the possibility of extending the company’s charter or tax obligations). Lawyers from our law firm “Prykhodko & Partners” will advise on all these issues.
The main reasons for permanent residence in Switzerland can be:
- Employment.
A work permit can only be granted to highly qualified specialists. The main requirements are compliance with the quota policy, the absence of alternative candidates.
- Individuals who have financial independence.
A residence permit is possible if foreigners can prove their financial capacity and conclude an appropriate tax payment agreement with the canton.
The minimum tax is from CHF 250,000.
- Opening/purchasing a business in Switzerland.
If a foreigner opens a company in this state, he can apply for type B residence. The key criterion is economic benefit for the canton.
- Family reunification.
Family members of Swiss citizens can apply for a residence permit. An important condition: compliance with the requirements for financial security, joint residence and level of integration.
