Whatever your citizenship is, you need to apply for a Swiss residence permit to live in Switzerland.

If you or your partner (married) have an EU or EFTA passport the application for a Swiss residence permit has become more easily because of the bilateral agreements between Switzerland and the EU.

For all other nationalities, the application requires more conditions to be fulfilled and can be more difficult, but there are solutions.
