Switzerland is in the Schengen zone (90/180 days). Long-term residency (B-Permit) is incredibly difficult for non-EU citizens, usually requiring corporate sponsorship or immense wealth.
🐕 Pet Import Logistics
Very pet-friendly. Standard European import rules (microchip, rabies vaccine). Dogs must be registered and taxes paid locally.
Climate & Timing
Cold, dark winters and stunning summers. Perfect for executing from a lakeside chalet.
