Switzerland eases Covid-19 entry requirements

Form Saturday (22 January), fully vaccinated international arrivals or those who have recovered from the virus will no longer be required to present a negative test before entering the country.

However, those who are not vaccinated or who have not recovered from Covid will still have to take a PCR or rapid antigen test prior to arrival.

Due to limited testing capacity, travellers will also no longer be required to take follow-up tests four to seven days after entry. 

A passenger locator form will only have to be completed by those travelling to Switzerland by plane or on a long-distance bus service.
