Hi,

New to the forum and life in Switzerland, I am moving from Beijing but hold an EU(UK) passport and Australian passport. I'll be working in Zurich and wonder which passport will make me pay less tax.

Thanks for your advice!

neither .......

I always use my EU passport here in Europe. Not because I'd pay more tax though, my Aussie passport would make living and working here more dificult.

IMHO you stand much better chances w/ your EU passport, as Switzerland is engaging in bilateral talks w/ EU countries re. work permits, Schengen, etc.
Down here in TI it's full of italian nationals who are working here, and you may have heard/read of the angst surrounding the hypothesis of a major inflow of immigrants from East EU countries which have recently joined the european community.

As far as taxes are concerned, love it or leave it, really.... Switzerland isn't *that* bad, IMHO.

My first thought was neither - then I considered your path through permits and say EU.

But you're a real Aussie, I can see that now
