Whether you are an expatriate or local citizen, if you are looking at leasing a car, then Autociel.ch is a reliable partner that brings hassle-free and affordable financing to you. Our experts don’t just sell you a car; they understand your requirements first and then advise you on the solution that fits your needs. Buying or leasing a car as an expat in Switzerland was never this easy!

How does leasing work in Switzerland?

In Switzerland, you can lease a car for a period of 12 to 60 months. But keep in mind, if you breach the lease you’ll need to pay a penalty in most cases. The penalty amount may vary from contract to contract (usually CHF 3,000-5,000).  So, if you are unsure about the duration of your stay in the country, take out a lease for the minimum duration. For example, if you are not sure whether to stay for 2 years or 3 years, take out a 2-year lease and you can extend it for another 12 months (if needed).

Keep in mind, if you lease a car as an individual, the only option is financial leasing. All-inclusive leasing (with insurance, road tax, service and repairs, winter and summer tires) is only available for companies.

I’m an expat in Switzerland. Can I lease a car before I receive my  Swiss residence permit?

Autociel.ch makes it possible! All you need is an employment contract and we can provide you with a leasing contract. Send us a copy of your residential permit as soon as it’s issued. We can deliver the car even before we receive a copy of your B-permit. In the table below you can see some of the cars available within 3 weeks as nearly new or new. All the examples show the monthly amount payable for a 3-year leasing at 20,000km/year and without any down-payment.
