More jobs than inhabitants: 57% of jobs are held by cross-border commuters, and only 416 people were registered unemployed in August 2026. But as an EEA citizen you need a permit for every job, and residence permits are limited and partly drawn by lottery. Find out where to look for work, what the rules are and how commuting works.
Start with the public employment service AMS FL (Arbeitsmarkt Service Liechtenstein):
Before you apply, check whether you will live in Liechtenstein or commute – your permit depends on it (see “Your first weeks”).
