• The European Commission is introducing the ETIAS Visa Waiver for Switzerland in order to protect and strengthen European borders by pre-screening travelers to Switzerland and other Schengen Area countries. ETIAS stands for European Travel Information and Authorization System.
• The European Visa Waiver for Switzerland will allow multiple entries to Schengen Area countries, as it is a multiple-entry travel authorization valid for a total of 3 years. It is expected to allow a maximum stay of 90 days within each 180-day period.
• Travelers who are eligible will be able to submit an ETIAS application for Switzerland online. The simple ETIAS Switzerland application form can be completed in just a few minutes with personal, passport, and travel information. Applicants are required to answer some basic security questions in order to submit the form and receive an approved ETIAS Switzerland via email.
• The Swiss ETIAS visa waiver will allow holders to visit Switzerland and the Schengen Area for purposes of tourism, transit, business, or medical treatment.
• Those who wish to study or work in Switzerland, or stay for longer periods, should contact a Swiss Embassy or Consulate for further information.

• ETIAS requirements for Switzerland also state that the applicant should use the same passport to travel to Switzerland and the Schengen Area as that used to complete the ETIAS form.
• Travelers with dual nationality should ensure they bring the correct passport when preparing for their trip. This is essential as the approved ETIAS Switzerland is electronically linked to the same passport provided during the application.
• If the ETIAS to Switzerland is denied, it is expected that applicants will be able to submit a new ETIAS application. Applicants will need to ensure that all the information provided on the form matches the details of their passport, as even a small error is expected to result in the rejection of the application.
• It will be necessary to re-apply for the Swiss ETIAS when it expires to continue to travel to the Schengen Area. The ETIAS for Switzerland is valid for 3 years and allows multiple entries during its validity, so it is not necessary to apply for a new ETIAS for every trip.
• The process of applying for an ETIAS for Switzerland for dual nationals is the same as for other applicants. However, those with dual citizenship should ensure they use the same passport to travel to Switzerland as that used to complete the ETIAS application, as it is necessary to present the same passport alongside the approved ETIAS. If the traveler is a dual citizen of an EU country as well as a non-EU country, they will not be required to apply for an ETIAS.

Eligible travelers will be able to apply online for a Swiss ETIAS from anywhere outside of the Schengen Area countries. Applicants will be required to complete the ETIAS online application form to receive an approved ETIAS by email.
