Do I need a residence permit for the Principality of Liechtenstein? If so, what is needed to apply?

Students who wish to take up temporary residence in Liechtenstein for the purpose of study need to apply for a short-term residence permit. The coordination center of permits will assist you with the application process.

Students from third countries require a visa to enter Liechtenstein. Please remember that the University of Liechtenstein provides support – do not start the procedure yourself.

EU/EWR citizens are free to choose Austria or Switzerland for living. If you choose to live in Austria/ Switzerland we cannot assist you with the application process for a residence permit and other formalities.

Visa application for students from third countries

Students from most third countries require a visa for entry to Liechtenstein. The University of Liechtenstein provides a bank guarantee after a deposit amounting to CHF 3000 is paid by the student to the University of Liechtenstein. This amount is retained as a security deposit and will not be refunded until the finish of studies.
