Full detail in the sections below (pathways, fiscal, citizenship, labour, education). Compare countries on the World map.
Family Reunification (Liechtenstein)
Family
If a close family member holds a Liechtenstein residence permit or is a citizen, this route lets you join them - though the same tight quota system shapes the timing.
Residence Permit B without Gainful Employment (Liechtenstein)
General residence
If you are an economically inactive EEA national who can support yourself, this lets you live in Liechtenstein - but, like the work permit, it is rationed and half is decided by lottery.
Settlement Permit C (Liechtenstein)
General residence
If you have lived in Liechtenstein on a Permit B for around five years, this is your settlement status - more secure, longer-term residence.
Cross-Border Commuter Permit / Grenzganger (Liechtenstein)
Sponsored work
If you live in Austria or Switzerland and work in Liechtenstein, this is the realistic mass route - you work in Liechtenstein but return home, without using up a residence permit.
Residence Permit B for Gainful Employment (Liechtenstein)
Sponsored work
If you are an EEA national with a Liechtenstein job and want to actually live there, this is the route - but residence permits are rationed, and half are decided by a twice-yearly lottery.
