DESCRIPTION         
Major moves of UHNWIs are expected in 2025 and Switzerland is among the first choices for many of them. So this is a good time to take an overview not only of the conditions for obtaining Swiss residency, but also of the tax regimes (the forfait, of course, but also some lesser-known optimization methods), the smart pre-immigration planning reflexes, the restrictions on acquisition of real estate (the famous Lex Koller) and some keys to successful estate planning for newcomers (matrimonial, incapacity and testamentary).
