Find Tips and Advice on China from Swiss Expats

Of course, expat living in China is not just about shipping your belongings and filing in some bureaucratic papers. Regular socializing with fellow Swiss is an essential part of expat life and helps getting accustomed to the Chinese way of life and mentality. InterNations helps you connect and meet up with other Swiss in China, residing in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and many other places throughout the country. Just take a look at our group of Swiss in Shanghai or Swiss in Beijing.

If you ever wish to have a chat in your native language, discover where to shop for Swiss food or discuss your favorite sports team's latest match, become a member of the Chinese InterNations Community:

  • Look up our top quality network to get to know open-minded expats from Switzerland in China.
  • Obtain and share insider tips in our China Expat Forums – e.g. how to hire a babysitter fluent in your native tongue for your children or where to get rösti in Shanghai.
  • Search the InterNations Places database for China to get information on institutions from your home country, including the Swiss embassy.

From the deltas of China's two major rivers, the Huang He and Yangtze to the snowy mountains of the Tibetan provinces, we’ll help you connect with supportive and friendly Swiss expats in China.

Join Our Expat Activities and Mingle with Fellow Swiss in China

Moreover, please feel free to attend our regular expat events and activities in China. Our get-togethers are very diverse and range from a cozy gathering to enjoy the traditional Chinese Peking duck & hot pot, to big expat celebrations with hundreds of participants in Beijing’s best locations. You can also participate in one of our expat trips to go and see the traditional trading centre of the South-East provinces as well as other beautiful landmarks in China.

Our meet-ups and activities are a great opportunity to mingle with expats from Switzerland and various other countries in a casual setting. Interested? Just sign up and you’ll soon be receiving a cordial Grüezi, salut, buongiorno, bainvegni from our Swiss living in China!
