ArriveCH reads the cantonal and federal rules for you. Every deadline on your timeline keeps a link to the office or law it comes from, with its date of verification.

Three steps, one timeline

  1. 01

    Describe your situation

    In one free sentence: nationality, canton and commune, dates, family, vehicle, insurance situation. We recognise the essentials.

  2. 02

    Confirm the recognised facts

    Nothing is taken for certain: you check the recognised information and answer 2 to 5 questions, each with a reason to exist.

  3. 03

    Follow your dated timeline

    Every step with its deadline calculated from your dates, the competent authority and the official source. Free analysis, no account.

Create my timeline

What your timeline covers

Three areas, built from the situation you describe.

Residence and permits

Commune and canton

Arrival declaration at the residents’ office (contrôle des habitants) or OCPM, application for a B or L permit: deadlines depend on your canton, your commune and your contract.

Learn more →

Health insurance

A 3-month window

The legal deadline for taking out LAMal coverage after your arrival, and the cross-border worker option if you arrive from France.

Learn more →

Vehicle and taxation

Tax at source, registration

What is automatic, what falls to you, and when: tax at source, your AVS number, registering your vehicle.

Free to see, paid to finish
