Hi all,
I have searched through EF and found lots of information about leaving Switzerland, but so far not an easy check-list of all the "To Do's". I have documented my checklist (which is growing by the day), and would love everyone to add to it if they have additional information - hopefully we can be the "one stop shop" checklist for everyone leaving the country.
A few disclaimers first - This does not cover anything to do with children / mortgages. Also, I am not attempting to answer all the questions (plenty of other threads do that), simply trying to create a summary list of things to do/check/investigate etc
Good luck with your move!
Cheers,
Ashlee
