Where is the COVID certificate used?
Use within Switzerland
The certificate requirement was lifted in Switzerland on 17 February 2022. To find out what rules apply, please visit the Measures and Ordinances page.
With the return to a normal situation, the authority to order potential measures is once again held by the cantons.
Use for travel
For travel outside Switzerland, depending on the measures in place in the country in question, COVID certificates may still be required. EU-compatible COVID certificates will therefore continue to be issued in Switzerland. You will find out how to obtain a COVID certificate on the Where and how to get a COVID certificate page.
