Application procedure for urgent medical purposes (fast-track)

When applying for a visa to enter Switzerland, the appointment schedule and checking process can be fast-tracked for serious and urgent medical reasons (urgent medical treatment, serious accident, loss in the family, etc.). To enable the Swiss representation to assess your situation, please contact them and provide the following information:

  • the reasons for the medical emergency.
    or
  • information about the funeral of your close relative.
  • your desired departure date.

The representation will contact you as soon as possible about how to apply for your visa.
