Hello everyone, I’m an EU national with B permit living in Vaud canton. I work as a consultant and my employer assigned me to a customer in Basel, for this reason I need to find a place to sleep during the weekdays, I’m entertaining the idea of renting a room in a shared apartment on the French side (Huningue or Saint-Louis) as they are cheaper than Basel, but my main fear is: doing this, would the French government claim that I should pay taxes to them as a French resident and making me lose my B permit? The following points have to be considered:
- I would use the room only to sleep in during the week nights, during the day I would be at work in Basel and during most weekends I would return to Vaud.
- I regularly rent an apartment in the Vaud municipality where I’m registered, I would keep the apartment as my main residence and continue to pay for utilities, health insurance and other taxes as usual. In the case I decide to move permanently to Basel and leave Vaud I would look for an apartment on the Swiss side and live there.
- I’m not French and I’ve never lived in France. How do you see my situation? submitted by /u/kng_neer
