Switzerland Transit Visa
AirlinesHQ.com » Transit Visa » Switzerland Transit Visa
A visa is not required to transit through Switzerland providing that they do
not intend to leave the international transit area. In all these cases, you
enter the Schengen Area, and, unless you are exempt from short-stay visa
requirements, you must apply in advance for an entry and stay visa in order to
transit through Switzerland.
Under normal circumstances, for a layover or transfer between two international
flights the foreigner can remain in the international transit zone at the
airport without any visa.
However, some nationalities are subject to visa requirements, even if they do
not leave the international transit zone. Airport transit visas entitle the
foreigner only to pass through the international transit area of airports.
