The Federal Council has decided to leave the third-country quotas unchanged.

+ Cantons fight to keep non-EU work permits

The Federal Council had consulted with social partners and cantons before taking the decision on Wednesday. In 2024, up to 8,500 qualified specialists can again be recruited outside the EU and EFTA: 4,500 with residence permit B and 4,000 with short-term residence permit L.

In recent years, the quotas have not been fully utilised, the State Secretariat for Migration (SEM) wrote. At the end of October 2023, 68% of B residence permits for employed third-country nationals and 65% of L short-stay permits had been used.

The quotas for service providers from the EU and EFTA also remain unchanged. The special quota for employed people from the United Kingdom will also continue, also unchanged.
