Leaving CH for a while and coming back

Hello Everyone,

Just a quick question regarding a short leave of 45 days and then relocate to a new address; I would like to leave my place but yet keep for these days the address valid till my return when I will have to enter my new place locate to a different municipality.

I will stay out of CH for this month and half and I would like to have the possibility to redirect the mail to some-sort-of-service that might allow me to check from internet all the mails and eventually collect the paper version later on when I will be back..

Guess is a sort of digital version of a postal box or similar; has anyone heard of such service somewhere? perhaps post.ch is offering some viable solution similar to what I am looking for?

Thanks for your support in advance.

Cheers!

You can certainly tell the post office that you'll be out of the country for a 1.5 months and they can hold your mail.

But I've never heard of anyone providing the service you describe. I've always relied on family/neighbours.

Thanks for your reply.

Actually the service around US is pretty common:

pretty sure something close to that might even existing in CH.

If you’re going to be in the same place you could possibly get your mail forwarded to you there by the post office.

Don’t expect the same thing as the US, I would guess it’s rare to non-existent here. That said, the post office might offer such a service, you’d need to check with them since they seem to be changing their system.

Is this it? https://www.swisspostsolutions.com/en/solutions/what

Probably, but only seems to be for business customers. Whether they still do it for individuals …

Well that took me two minutes to find. I’m sure the OP can do likewise.

I use PEAX: https://peax.ch/privat/

They scan mail for you, possible to request the original, and stuff like bank cards/non-scannable items they send you for free (you can choose the address where the original will be sent , e.g. to a friend - Umleitungadresse in peax profile settings)

There is also a post app from Klara - they do the same -

Post used to offer it to individuals, then they aquired the majority of Klara which offers the same service.
