When do you need a Visa to visit Switzerland?
When do you need a Visa to visit Switzerland? How do you determine when it’s necessary, how to get it, how much it costs and how long it takes? I’m only talking about visiting, not living permenently or working.
Somebody told me anybody from an EU country can come to VISIT without a Visa. Is this true? The second question is is this wiki entry accurate and up to date in terms of current EU members? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Union_member_state
Thanks.
When do you need a Visa to visit Switzerland? How do you determine when it’s necessary ?
->It depends on nationality or in some cases country of residence. Check the webpage of the Swiss Federal Office for Migration:

How to get it, how much it costs and how long it takes?
-> Individuals requiring a visa are required to submit their visa application to the Swiss foreign mission in charge of their place of residence. For more information:

Somebody told me anybody from an EU country can come to VISIT without a Visa. Is this true?
-> No it’s not true. Citizens of a few new members need visas. For example Bulgarians.
Is this wiki entry accurate and up to date in terms of current EU members?
-> Yes it is accurate and up to date. Official EU website: http://europa.eu/abc/european_countries/index_en.htm
