ANobAG explained in a nutshell
If you live in Switzerland but want to work for a foreign employer or client, you have several options. One of them is to register as an ANobAG. ANobAG is the abbreviation for employee or employer liable to pay contributions and allows you to settle the social insurances in Switzerland instead of your foreign employer or client. This construct is particularly popular because there is no third party involved (as with a payroll company), so you remain directly employed. In addition, it is very convenient for the contracting party abroad (they have practically no contact points with the Swiss administration) and it is the natural legal construct for the situation. However, the subject is not quite simple, because different areas of law such as international tax and social security law interact and there are accordingly certain hurdles or limits. The good news is: we know them all!
We will advise you transparently and let you know if ANobAG fits your situation or not. If yes, we accompany you from A to Z. We guide you through the registration process, if desired through the contract negotiation and design and afterwards with the monthly wage documentation. We regularly work with the party in Switzerland, the party abroad or often both parties and are accordingly versatile in our services.
