Entry and visa rules for camp participants
Swiss entry requirements depend on nationality, purpose and duration of stay. A camp visit lasting more than 90 days is considered as long-term, while shorter programs follow short-stay rules. Families should check the applicable conditions before travel using the State Secretariat for Migration guidance by citizenship.
Students from outside EU/EFTA countries must apply for a visa at a Swiss embassy or consulate before entering Switzerland. A student who already holds a valid long-stay visa or residence permit issued by another Schengen State does not need to apply again.
