Whereas, if you are a non-EU/EEA traveller wishing to visit Switzerland, you will need to present the following, when you show up at the Swiss port of entry:

• A passport or travel document. Valid for at least three more months beyond your planned date of exit from Schengen, and issued within the last 10 years.
• A visa – a short-stay visa to enter Switzerland and any other member country of the Schengen zone
• *British passport holders are exempt from the criteria of passport validity and issuance date.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Switzerland Entry Restrictions in Response to Coronavirus

Due to the Coronavirus outbreak, Switzerland, as well as the rest of the EU and Schengen Area members imposed an EU-wide entry ban on third-country nationals in mid-March 2020. With the improved epidemiological situation in the EU and abroad, Switzerland has lifted the entry ban for a few countries and several categories of travellers.
