Guarantor Service for International Students in Switzerland
What is our guarantor service?
When renting in Switzerland, many private landlords require a Swiss-based guarantor who is legally and financially responsible for the rental contract. For international students and newcomers, this can be one of the biggest barriers to securing accommodation — especially if you do not yet have local contacts, established financial history, or a Swiss bank account. Our guarantor service is designed to solve this problem.
If you have found a private flat in Switzerland and the landlord requires a Swiss guarantor, we can act as your professional guarantor, subject to eligibility. This service helps meet landlord requirements and significantly increases your chances of securing the property.
We assess each request individually to ensure compliance with Swiss rental standards and provide clear terms so you understand exactly how the guarantee works. Our goal is to simplify the rental process and give you the confidence to secure accommodation, even before arriving in Switzerland.
