Switzerland was new entry and quarantine regulations

What prompted SEM to implement the new rules?

The new measures are being implemented because many travelers from “countries at risk” have tried to avoid entry and quarantine regulations, passing through safe “ ” nations.

For example, many travelers from countries on the government's high-risk list have made a stop-up flight to a nation that is named safe, for which there is no restriction of access or quarantine.

What differs from Monday?

According to the SEM, it will no longer be possible to enter Switzerland from a high-risk country amid a transit flight through a high-risk country”.

Under new regulations that define entry rules, you will be seen where you are headed and not where you stop.

For example, people returning to Switzerland from the United States, considered to be a country of high risk, cannot go through transit through a secure nation, such as Canada or a Schengen state to avoid quarantine.

With the same sign, the starting site determines whether travelers can enter Switzerland at all.

What about passengers from third countries?

People flying from the approved areas, including Japan, Australia, and New Zealand, can continue to enter Switzerland, even if they have to change planes to a high - risk list because there are no direct flights.

* The only condition is not to let the international transition zone at the airport they stop at so they don't actually enter with the high-risk country”, the SEM report said.

This new regulation aims to prevent people from bypassing entry requirements by traveling to places not to high risk list”,

What is the difference between two different lists of Swiss high - risk coronarys?

As The Local explained in an August 19th article, the first list is mainly meant for foreigners who want to come to Switzerland tourists, people who want to visit relatives in Switzerland, or foreign citizens seeking work.

The second is more directed towards residents of Switzerland who want to travel abroad and must know what conditions exist after their return.

As a reminder, travel restrictions are based, not on citizenship, but on residence.
