Exercise normal precautions in Switzerland.

Read the country information page for additional information on travel to Switzerland.

If you decide to travel to Switzerland:

• Enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) to receive messages and alerts from the U.S. Embassy and make it easier to locate you in an emergency.
• Review the Country Security Report for Switzerland.
• Prepare a plan for emergency situations. Review the International Traveler’s Checklist.
• Visit the CDC page for the latest Travelers’ Health Information related to your travel and return to the United States.
