Liechtenstein, a small principality located between Switzerland and Austria, has become a new destination for workers from all over Europe.

This country of just 39 thousand inhabitants, with an unemployment rate of around two percent and a strong industry, attracts workers with high earnings, low taxes, and an exceptional standard of living.

According to AS.com and EuropaExpress, employers in Liechtenstein are actively recruiting through the European EURES network, and applications are open to citizens of all European Union member states and Schengen area countries. Demand covers a wide range of professions, from technicians, hairdressers, and industrial workers, to caregivers and couples working in households, writes nova.rs.

The median gross salary in Liechtenstein amounts to 7,042 Swiss francs (according to official data for 2022), which is approximately 7,394 euros (depending on the exchange rate). Experts in the IT sector, finance, and manufacturing often earn over 10,000 francs per month, while less qualified occupations, such as domestic helpers or workers in elderly care homes, receive between 2,500 and 3,000 francs. Many employers additionally offer free or subsidized accommodation, health insurance, and paid training.

The country is known for its stable economy and very favorable tax system. Corporate tax is only 12.5 percent, and VAT just 8.1 percent. At the same time, the social system functions flawlessly: all employees are entitled to health and pension insurance as well as at least four weeks of annual leave. EuropaExpress points out that Liechtenstein has abandoned its reputation as a tax haven and today prides itself on transparency and compliance with European Union rules.

For most jobs, a higher education degree is not required. Practical skills, experience, and knowledge of the German language are valued, while for jobs in hospitality and households, basic knowledge and a willingness to work in smaller teams are sufficient. All listings are available exclusively on the official EURES portal, which guarantees their authenticity and security.

Liechtenstein is described as a “Swiss paradise with a more human face.” Crime is almost nonexistent, the workweek lasts 40 hours, and breaks and working conditions are strictly regulated. Due to the high quality of life and stability, many workers from Austria, Switzerland, and Germany cross the border daily to work in that country, while interest is increasingly growing among workers from Eastern Europe.
