The tasks of the embassy

26.10.2024 – Developments in the region

The Embassy of Switzerland in the Islamic Republic of Iran is closely monitoring the developments of the situation in connection with the conflict in the Middle East. Tensions are high and a significant deterioration in the security situation in the Islamic Republic of Iran is possible at any time.

For Swiss citizens: Travel to the Islamic Republic of Iran is generally not recommended. The FDFA recommends that Swiss nationals leave the country using their own means if it appears possible and safe to do so. Please observe the FDFA's travel advice (in German, French and Italian) and inform yourself independently regarding the current situation and follow the instructions of the local authorities.

Swiss nationals who remain in the Islamic Republic of Iran or travel there contrary to the recommendations of the FDFA must be aware that Switzerland may only be able to provide limited services or none at all and would have only limited possibilities to provide assistance in an emergency if the security situation deteriorates further.

We ask you to keep your contact and travel details up to date on the Travel Admin App or at the Swiss representation where you are registered. In emergencies, you can contact the FDFA Helpline: +41 800 24 7 365 or +41 58 465 33 33.
