Every advisor works fluently in English and handles official correspondence with the Administration fiscale cantonale in French — nothing is lost in translation.

From quasi-resident to lump-sum
B-permit first-timers, cross-border G-permit holders, US citizens with FATCA exposure, and HNW residents on forfait fiscal — each has a specialised contact on the platform.

A short list, not a long one.
We'd rather introduce you to advisors we trust than list dozens we don't. Profiles below are editorial previews — introductions are made personally.
What expats tell us
"I wish I had found this in my first week, not my third year."
I moved from London on a B-permit in March. Filing the quasi-resident form myself would have cost me months of confusion. The advisor I was matched with took two calls — done.

I'm a US citizen working remotely from Geneva. Most fiduciaires here don't touch FBAR or 1040s. SwissExpatHub pointed me directly to one who does both sides.

Nous sommes une famille française installée à Cologny depuis 2021. Le conseiller proposé a négocié notre imposition d'après la dépense avec l'AFC. Sérieux, discret.

Swiss compliance, plainly explained
What changes once you live in Geneva.
Geneva combines federal income tax, cantonal and communal taxes, a wealth tax, and — for most B-permit holders — withholding at source (impôt à la source). Our resources cover the situations where expats most often need a fiduciaire.
- Tax year & deadlines
- Standard cantonal deadline 31 March. Free extension to 30 June via AFC Genève e-Démarches.
- Quasi-resident status
- Earn ≥90% of worldwide income in Switzerland? You can opt for ordinary assessment — the TOU form.
- Wealth tax
- Cantonal, levied on worldwide net wealth. Geneva applies progressive rates; foreign property is included with a tax-only effect.
- Pillar 3a
- Voluntary private pension. Contributions are deductible up to the annual federal limit (CHF 7,258 in 2025 for employees).
- Cross-border (G-permit)
- Taxed in canton of work; France-Switzerland convention applies different rules for Geneva vs Vaud.
- Forfait fiscal
- Lump-sum taxation based on lifestyle expenditure, available to non-Swiss who don't work in Switzerland.
Common questions
Before you ask.
If your situation isn't here, write to us in English or French — a person reads each message.
Is SwissExpatHub a tax advisor?
No. SwissExpatHub is an independent introduction platform based in Switzerland. We are not a tax advisory firm, law firm, fiduciary, or government entity. Tax services are provided directly by independent third-party advisors.
How are advisors selected?
Each advisor is reviewed against three criteria: registration with the Administration fiscale cantonale, valid professional indemnity insurance, and at least two referenceable expat clients. We update the review annually.
Do you charge expats?
No. The introduction is free for expats. Listed advisors pay an annual flat membership; we don't take commission on engagements, which keeps recommendations honest.
What about my data?
Your form stays inside SwissExpatHub. Your information is never sold or distributed to multiple firms. We share only the details you choose, only with the advisors you select, and only by email.
I'm a US citizen — can you help?
Yes. We have advisors in Geneva who routinely handle 1040, FBAR/FATCA, and the US-Swiss totalisation agreement alongside the cantonal return.
I haven't moved yet — too early?
Not at all. The most useful introductions happen 2–3 months before arrival, while pension transfers, equity, and permit choices are still flexible.
A note from the editor
SwissExpatHub was created to simplify the search for English-speaking tax advisors in Geneva. The platform focuses on careful introductions instead of large anonymous directories.
Discreet by default.
Your form is read by a single editor. Details stay between you and the advisor you choose — no retargeting pixels, no data hand-offs.
