Useful answers

Are you worried about a speeding ticket? Got questions about your tax return? Planning to launch a referendum? Want to be sure your holiday souvenirs won't get stuck at customs? The ch.ch portal offers help on these and many more topics.

We try to explain legal and administrative issues in the simplest possible language – without any bureaucratic jargon. The content is available in the four Swiss national languages as well as in English.

Up-to-date

The only constant is change, also when it comes to the law and regulations. We regularly review and update the content on ch.ch, but if you happen to notice something here that isn’t up-to-date, please let us know via feedback@ch.ch.
