Fellowships are short-term (most are one or two years) post-graduate opportunities to work in a specific field of interest. Many have formalized training programs, loan forgiveness programs, housing and/or travel stipends and numerous other opportunities for networking within the field of interest. Legal fellowships constitute a significant share of the entry-level public interest job market.
Such fellowships are tax-free in Switzerland. Therefore, not every amount of money commonly called fellowship is a fellowship in the juridical sense. 1  If you get a fellowship without condition, it is tax-free.2  If you get an amount of money linked to an application or a contract of employment, it is assessable.axes and other duties are levied on three levels: the Confederation, the 26 cantons and the some 3,000 municipalities, reflecting the federalist State structure of the Swiss Confederation.
