At its meeting on 7th December 2018, the Swiss Federal Council decided to maintain the transitional period until the end of December 2021. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thanks to the Free Movement of Persons Agreement (FZA) with the European Union (EU) on Croatia, Croatian nationals benefit from a <strong>Visa-free entry <\/strong>into Switzerland and can stay in our country for up to three months. However, special transitional provisions apply to the taking up of any gainful employment in Switzerland and the provision of services. Thus, Croatian nationals will only be authorized to take up employment under the control, of a previous search, of wage and working conditions and within the framework of established annual quotas. <strong>These transitional provisions will be maintained until 31 December 2021. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Summary: <\/strong>Croatian nationals, despite being EU citizens, are treated as citizens from outside the EU\/EFTA when they are first employed in Switzerland.
