Switzerland Visa

Switzerland Tourist Visas with Traveriya

Switzerland is a distinguished member of the Schengen Area, meaning that for short-term visits, it issues the Schengen Visa (Type C). This visa permits travel within Switzerland and all other Schengen member states for a maximum of 90 days within any 180-day period.

For individuals planning to experience Switzerland’s renowned landscapes and cultural attractions, the Tourist Visa is the relevant category. This visa is specifically designed for purposes of leisure, sightseeing, and visiting friends or relatives, ensuring a seamless entry for your planned Swiss journey.

Documents required for Switzerland Visa Applications

Traveriya will provide a precise, personalized checklist. Generally, you’ll need:

• Your Passport: You’ll need your original passport. It must be valid for at least three months beyond your planned departure from the Schengen Area, issued within the last 10 years, and have at least two blank pages.
• Previous Visas: Provide copies of any past Schengen, UK, USA, or Canada visas you’ve held.
• Photographs: Two recent passport-sized photos (3.5cm x 4.5cm, white background) that meet Schengen rules are needed.
• Application Form: The completed Schengen Visa Application Form.
• Flight Bookings: Confirmed round-trip flight bookings showing your entry into and exit from the Schengen Area.
• Proof of Accommodation: This can be confirmed hotel reservations for your entire stay in Switzerland/Schengen. Alternatively, an official invitation letter from your host, along with details of their accommodation and a copy of their passport/residence permit, is acceptable.
