Diplomatic and consular protection
Switzerland provides its nationals abroad with diplomatic and consular protection, according to which it will either act on its own behalf or on behalf of its nationals. In practice, Switzerland provides mostly consular protection as the conditions for extending diplomatic protection are stricter.
