Change of domicile

Moving to another canton, settling in Switzerland or leaving it: we quantify the tax impact and handle the formalities.

Our approach

A change of residence, from one canton to another or to Switzerland, affects your taxes, your assets and your pension. We cost these effects in advance, organise the formalities and coordinate the returns for the year you leave and the year you arrive.

Scope and expertise

Comparison of the tax burden between cantons, or with France

Income and wealth tax, depending on your situation.

Date of the move

The canton of domicile on 31 December in principle taxes the whole year.

Notifications to the authorities, residence permits, health insurance

We tell you which steps to take and their deadlines.

Leaving France

Tax exit, including the exit tax on substantial shareholdings.

Lump-sum taxation

For certain individuals who settle in Switzerland without working there, tax may be calculated on their expenditure rather than on their worldwide income and wealth.
