Visas
Requirements for entering Liechtenstein
Switzerland and Liechtenstein generally share the same entry requirements. The provisions concerning persons requiring visas are largely identical. (cf. Ordinance of 9 December 2008 on the procedure of entry and visa, 152.204). These provisions are, however, subject to alterations based on bilateral or multilateral agreements.
Visa requirements for entering Liechtenstein
Individuals requiring a visa may submit an application to the Swiss representation in their country of residence. The decision on the request lies partly with the Swiss authorities and partly with the Immigration and Passport Office. To determine whether you require a visa, please visit www.bfm.admin.ch or check the Liechtenstein Law Gazette LGBl. 2008 No 315.
Entering other countries
If you are interested in the entry requirements for other countries, please consult a travel agency or the embassy of the country you plan to enter.
