About us

An honest guide, made by and for people about to take the leap

Rumbo Suiza started from a simple idea: information about moving to Switzerland is scattered across forums, official PDFs in three languages, and conflicting advice. We wanted one place, in Spanish (and now in English), kept up to date, and built specifically for EU citizens.

Who's behind this

I'm Adrián. I moved to Switzerland together with my partner and our dogs, coming from Mallorca. The decision wasn't just professional: behind it was a mix of wanting to grow personally and in my career, and the weight of the uncertainty that's been building in Spain, especially these last few years.

We went through the whole process ourselves — permits, paperwork, finding a flat, learning the language, and yes, also the process of bringing our dogs — and realized that a lot of this information barely exists in Spanish, or is scattered across forums and official PDFs in German, French or Italian.

That's why we built Rumbo Suiza: so the basic help is free for anyone who needs it, and the deeper help — reviewing your specific case — is there for anyone who wants it. Beyond our own content, we also have trusted contacts for German classes, financial matters, residency and permits, and everything real-estate related (renting or buying) — in case you'd rather we connect you directly with someone we trust instead of researching it all yourself.

What we do

We gather and explain, clearly, all the real-world paperwork you need to sort out to move to Switzerland from Spain: permits, documents, housing, banking, health insurance, taxes, your car, and the language. We also built a free quiz that gives you an initial personalized orientation about your permit, your expected salary, and the canton that best fits you — all calculated in your own browser, no sign-up required.

What we're not

We're not a law firm or an official immigration agency, and the content on this site is informational, not binding legal, tax or immigration advice. Rules change and vary by canton — always verify the specifics of your case with the official authorities (State Secretariat for Migration - SEM, or the relevant cantonal office).

How we sustain this site

This site is funded through advertising and our paid personalized consulting service, for people who'd rather have us review their specific case than research everything themselves. The free content of the guide will always stay free.
