Frontalier exemption extended again

Thursday, 30 June 2022 06:30

Frontaliers can work from home in France for another a few months.

The agreement between France and Switzerland which allows home working without having to register for French tax or social security payments has been extended until the end of October.

While the move is being broadly welcomed – there is some frustration there’s still no clear long-term solution.

Michel Charrat, the head of the European Cross-Border Group, told the Tribune de Genève that a lasting agreement has to be found.

The temporary agreement was reached during the covid lockdowns when we were all told to work from home.
