Everything about the Switzerland Tourist Visa Consultancy

Switzerland is the perfect and best location to enjoy a picturesque holiday for you and your family.

Switzerland has the perfect blend of holiday vibes and a promise to deliver the best Instagrammable photos for you!

If you are planning to visit the snow-topped Alps, crystal clear lakes, and charming Swiss villages, then you have to get a tourist visa to Switzerland from India. A well-prepared application is the key to a smooth journey.

At Continental Immigrations, we specialise in assisting Indians with the visa process for Switzerland, from eligibility review to document preparation and appointment scheduling. We are a 15-year-old company with more than 1.5 lacs immigrants worldwide. Understanding the Visa requirements is our expertise. 

Which Visa is required for visiting Switzerland?

Indian passport holders travelling to Switzerland for tourism (up to 90 days) must apply for a Schengen short-stay visa (Type C) when Switzerland is the main destination.
This allows stays of up to 90 days in any 180-day apply.

A Schengen Visa also allows you to travel across 29 other countries, so preparing for the Visa is a must.

How can Continental Immigrations help you with your Switzerland Visa consultation from India?

• Continental Immigrations reviews your purpose of visit (tourism/leisure), travel history, employment/business ties, financial status, and home-country ties in India.
  
  
• Assisting with compiling your passport, filled application form, photos, travel insurance, hotel bookings, flight/reservation itinerary, bank statements, and any other required documents.
  
  
• Whether you must book a slot with the Swiss visa application centre or prepare your submission, we guide you step by step.

• Bank statements (typically last 3-6 months), salary slips, ITRs, and property/business proof if applicable. This is a very important part of the application, which will make your case strong.
