Moving to Switzerland - Moving of Financial Assets

Foreign currencies

The import into Switzerland of currencies that are allowed as legal tender is not subject to any particular restrictions. However, you should comply with your own country's currency export regulations.

Securities and other assets

As the circulation of financial assets (cash, securities and other assets) between Switzerland and the European Union is free, their import into Switzerland is not subject to any disclosure requirements and is therefore duty free.

For further information we recommend you contact the Swiss Customs Administration or contact your bank directly.
