Does anyone know if for extending B permit for EU nationals are there any language exams/certificates required? I plan to apply for citizenship after 10 years in Switzerland, so I would rather like to pass required exams for this, than passing some now (to get another 5 ye and then later again for higher requirements…
BTW - it seems that language requirements for going from B to C will get stricter in May - for the nationals who were so far on exception list: https://www.vaud-welcome.ch/residence-permits:
From May 1st, 2023: Nationals of non-French speaking European countries who have a settlement agreement with Switzerland must provide a language certificate when applying for a settlement permit (C permit). The countries concerned are: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Greece, Italy, Liechtenstein, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain.
