Registration formalities
Contrôle des habitants – Bureau des étrangers (registration of residents and aliens office)
Every person taking up residence in the Commune has to register with the C.d.h. within 14 days.
Aliens arriving in Switzerland with a view to working must register with the B.d.é. before starting their job, for which they require a work permit.
This is issued by the Etat du Valais (= State offices), the decision being made by the Service cantonal des étrangers and the Service cantonal du travail.
Any change in status – marital, name, employer – or change of domicile, has to be reported to the C.d.h.
As each Swiss Commune is independent, it is necessary, upon change of Commune, to register with your new Commune.
permit L | temporary (valid according to the duration of your work contract) |
permit B | authorization to reside |
permit C | permission to reside permanently (« permis d’établissement ») |
permit G | permission to commute to Switzerland to work (« permis frontalier ») |
permit N /F | permit for refugees. |
Permits L and B are taxed at the source (deductible from salary and payable by the employer).
For EU nationals and members of the AELE, Permits B,C and G are generally valid 5 years.
For other aliens, Permit B is valid 1 year and C, 3 years. Permit G (commuters) does not exist for them.
