People of independent means
If your income from personal assets is 30,000 euros a year or more, you qualify to become a Swiss resident, no matter your age. You can also benefit from Swiss lump sum taxation if you do not work within Switzerland.

If are self-employed, as a businessman, professional, consultant, agent, shopkeeper, artisan, or artist you can obtain Swiss residency more easily than ever.
