In November 2019, we provided an overview of the number of
quotas available for EU and non-EU citizens, who wish to work and
live in Switzerland. Read our previous blog on this topic
here. This blog provides an update of the quotas available for
2020.
If you have been following this topic, you are probably familiar
with the Swiss quota system. Understanding how the quota system
works is very important, as, for some of us, access to the Swiss
employment market can be rather limited.
For those of you reading our blog for the first time, if you
want to work and live in Switzerland for more than four months, you
must apply for a permit that is, in essence, a quota permit (except
for EU 27/EEA on local employment). Depending on your nationality,
there are two types of quota permits: L permits and B permits.
