Switzerland Lifts Health-Related Travel Requirements

On February 16, the Government of Switzerland announced it would lift the health-related measures for travelers entering the country. Travelers will no longer need to provide proof of vaccination, recovery, or test results. These changes went into effect on February 17, 2022.

The government will also stop issuing COVID certificates that are valid only in Switzerland. Instead, they will use the EU-compatible certificates.

Mask-wearing in public transport and health centers will still be required until the end of March.
