Thanks in advance.
Hi, a month ago I got an email saying that my working permit had been approved. I went to the Swiss Embassy in my home country (I am a third country national) and was asked to pay a visa (type D) fee of 90sfc. Arriving in Switzerland I am asked to pay another permit fee of 95sfc. Am I right to assume that the first fee is for the entry visa, and the second is for the residence permit (I was asked a registration fee of 25sfc too)?
Yes, you are right.
Welcome to the forum and the country!
Welcome! I hope your settling in well.
In regards to fees and Switzerland, you will soon find out that where there is a will and a way, someone will surely figure out a way to charge you a fee! Get ready to open up your pocketbook and smile
Thanks for the info. But today I received another invoice of 95 sfc which says Bew. B mit EB/ZU. Maybe this one is for the ID card? So far I have paid 4 times for the permit, another invoice follows?
That appears to be the permit fee again - as you paid it in your op would challenge that one.
The migration office has told me that I have to pay all of them. The last one is for getting the identity card, is it? so far I have paid: 90 sfc for entry visa at the embassy, 95 sfc for EB Kanton, 25sfc for registration, 95sfc for Bew. B mit EB/ZU.
