🛡️ Rental guarantees for international tenants

Need a rental guarantor in Switzerland?

International students and expats rarely have Swiss payslips, a debt-collection extract or local rental history. SwissGuarantor performs an independent financial assessment of your file and, upon approval, can issue a private guarantee that strengthens your rental application.

Who applies to SwissGuarantor

🎓

International students

Admitted to a Swiss university or school, financed by parents or a scholarship — with no Swiss paperwork yet.

💼

Expats & new employees

A signed Swiss contract but no three payslips, no debt extract, no local history: the classic newcomer’s deadlock.

🔬

Researchers & PhD students

Fixed-term academic contracts that agencies read as fragile — our assessment puts them in context.

🚀

Entrepreneurs & remote workers

Solid finances in formats Swiss agencies don’t recognise. We translate them into a file that reads clearly.

How it works

1
Check your eligibility
Ten questions, two minutes, an honest first signal — no commitment and no automatic promises.
2
Submit your file & pay the application fee
Personal, financial and rental information; documents are then collected securely by your reviewer.
3
Human assessment
Our team analyses income, savings, stability and documents. Acceptance is never automatic.
4
Decision & guarantee
If approved, we quote the guarantee fee and issue your guarantee documents for your rental applications.

Frequent questions

Is acceptance guaranteed if I pay the application fee?
No — and be wary of anyone who promises otherwise. The fee covers the professional assessment of your file; issuance of a guarantee always remains our team’s individual decision.
Does a guarantee mean I will get the apartment?
No. A guarantee strengthens your application, but landlords and agencies remain entirely free in their choice of tenant.
What does it cost?
The application fee is CHF 95 incl. VAT. If your file is approved, the guarantee fee is quoted individually based on the guaranteed amount and duration — before any commitment.

Why applicants choose us

One clear assessment

You learn where you stand before spending more than the application fee — and if your profile is unlikely, we tell you upfront.

A file agencies can read

Foreign income, parental support, scholarships: we structure them the way Swiss professionals expect.

Human decisions

Software helps us read documents; people make every acceptance decision, file by file.

SwissGuarantor is an independent private service. The issuance of a guarantee is never automatic: every file is assessed individually and the final decision always rests with our team. SwissGuarantor is neither a bank nor an insurance company, and a guarantee does not entitle anyone to a lease — landlords decide freely.
