Short-Term Residence Permit L – Study/Training (Kurzaufenthaltsbewilligung L – Ausbildung)

The Short-Term Residence Permit L for study and training is a specific authorization for foreign nationals who have been accepted into an educational program at the University of Liechtenstein or other recognized training institutions within the country. This permit is designed to facilitate the temporary stay of students who need to reside in Liechtenstein to complete their academic or vocational training. Applicants must provide formal proof of enrollment from their chosen institution, confirming their status as a student, and must also demonstrate sufficient financial means to support themselves throughout the duration of their studies without relying on local social assistance.

The permit carries a fee of CHF 1,060 and is typically issued for the duration of the academic program, provided the student remains in good standing. It is an essential document for international students, as it grants them the legal right to reside in the Principality for the purpose of education. While the primary focus of this permit is academic, it provides students with the opportunity to immerse themselves in the local environment and gain valuable experience in the region. Students are encouraged to apply well in advance of their program start date to ensure all documentation is processed by the Migration and Passport Office in a timely manner.
