Hi everyone, I am italian living in Switzerland since 1 year, with regular job, rent contract, B permit.

I have been asked to self-declare on a form from the bank my Swiss Identification Number (NIF or TIN).
Reading some past threads it seems to be matching with the AVS number. As the information sources don't always seem to be too "confident", I am writing to ask if you could kindly confirm / not confirm if the N.AVS is definetely the Tax Identification number the the form is requiring.

My sources are:

https://www.englishforum.ch/finance-...on-number.html

Many thanks in advance

I gave my bank in the UK my AVS number, which they seemed happy with. They just want a number that identifies you as a resident and taxpayer in Switzerland.
