From day one.
A companion for every stage. From arrival to truly belonging.
Journey ARRIVE & THRIVESettle in
Our ARRIVE & THRIVE Journey walks you through everything you need to know to set up your life in Switzerland. From registering at your municipality to understanding healthcare, banking, mobility, and the unwritten rules of daily life. Personalized to your unique needs, and always pointing you to the exact local resource you need.
CompassStay on track
Compass gives you a clear overview of your progress across all your journeys. It includes the readiness tracker, which keeps you on top of your document management. It is linked directly to Arrive & Thrive so it updates automatically as you complete tasks. Key deadlines are calculated based on your arrival date and can be exported to your personal calendar. You can also set custom reminders for documents you still need to scan or request, so nothing falls through the cracks.
