The Swiss Embassy in Iran is deeply concerned about the recent escalation between Israel and Iran. It is monitoring developments in the region very closely. A further deterioration of the security situation in Iran is possible at any time.

For Swiss citizens: Travel to the Islamic Republic of Iran is generally not recommended. 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 travel to the Islamic Republic of Iran 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.
