Definition of Terms
ANobAG - Employee without a contributory employer
Anyone who lives and works in Switzerland but is employed by a company that does not have a registered office in Switzerland is responsible for paying their own social security contributions—unless payroll+ covers them.
ANobAG stands for “Employee without a contributory employer”.
The term refers to individuals who live and work in Switzerland but whose employers have neither a registered office nor a branch subject to social security contributions in this country. In such cases, the employees themselves are responsible for the correct calculation and payment of social security contributions—unless this task is delegated to a Swiss payroll provider.
This is exactly where payroll+ comes in: We take care of the administrative tasks and act as the employer for social security purposes.
Two Ways
ANobAG status or a Swiss payroll provider?
Both models ensure legal compliance—but the effort involved and the risk differ significantly.
ANobAG Status
- Registration with the cantonal compensation fund using the correct ANobAG structure based on the correct classification
- independent search for insurance and pension plan solutions
- full administrative and social security liability
time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Swiss payroll provider
- Onboarding within 24–72 hours
- Benefit from group insurance plans
- Employers and employees are fully relieved of their obligations
Compliant with the law, transparent, and without administrative burden.
