Swiss handbook for dealing with tourism emergencies

Many people will choose to travel to Switzerland, so what should I do if there is an emergency in Switzerland? This is a problem that many people care about. Let's take a look at the Swiss travel emergency handbook. Welcome to reading.

1. What should I do if I lose my passport?

Please report the loss to the local police station immediately and keep the loss report form. The name of the lost article and the name of the person who reported the loss should be listed in the report on the loss.

In Switzerland, there is a great possibility of retrieving lost documents. Those who are not in a hurry to leave Switzerland can wait 2-3 days and look for it at the lost and found office of the local railway station.

If you decide to reissue your travel permit and return to China, please contact the Embassy of China in Switzerland or the Consulate General of China in Zurich.

2. What materials do I need to provide to reissue my travel permit and return to China?

Please bring two two-inch ID card photos, the original and copy of the loss report form to our embassy in Switzerland (Bern) or Consulate General in Zurich. If you can provide a copy of the original passport or passport number, it will help speed up the verification.

3. How long does it take to reissue the travel permit?

Only after the identity verification and confirmation procedures are completed can a new travel document be issued. Due to the different situations of applicants, the time required is also different. It usually takes 1-4 working days.

4. What if the property is stolen and there is no money?

Please report the case to the local police station immediately. Usually, it is very unlikely to recover bearer property such as cash. If you need money urgently, you can borrow an account from the hotel where you are staying, or receive remittance from your family through Western Union. Railway stations in major cities in Switzerland generally have outlets for Western Union remittance, and withdrawals can be made within 2-3 hours after domestic remittance.
