Re: Expatriate Tax Allowance

Start asking for relocation and/or IA allowances from your employer, and they will soon tell you whether you are a local-hire for local people or not.

I am also very interested in this - is it the company who "decides" whether you are regarded as an expat, or is there some special wording that the contract must say and then its up to the tax authorities? I have heard some people talk about "expat" contracts and "local" contracts, but I am not sure what the difference is as surely both will pay swiss francs locally....
