Entry restrictions for Switzerland
Due to the existing entry restrictions for all non-essential travels to Switzerland from third countries, the Embassy is currently unable to accept new visa applications. It is therefore temporarily not possible to book an appointment for applying for a Visa C.
As long as the entry restrictions remain in place, visa applications can only be accepted in exceptional cases if there are compelling reasons that justify one of the listed exceptions to the entry restrictions. Further information can be found here: State Secretariat for Migration SEM
Citizens of Kosovo that fulfill the criteria of a hardship case or wish to visit their partner in Switzerland will be able to book an appointment online at TLScontact.
Citizens of North Macedonia and Albania that wish to visit their partner in Switzerland need to contact us per e-mail pristina.visa@eda.admin.ch
Please be informed that booking an appointment at TLScontact is only granted for cases that are listed on the exceptions to the entry restrictions for Switzerland.
Requests for family reunification / marriage preparation / studies
The Embassy allocates a limited number of appointments for applications for family reunification, marriage preparation and for studying in Switzerland. Please contact the Regional Consular Center Western Balkans by e-mail (pristina.visa@eda.admin.ch) to arrange an appointment. Please send a scan of your passport as well as a short description of the kind of application. The next available appointment will be allocated, based on the principle "first come, first served".
