Exchange

Major currencies can be exchanged without issue at exchange bureaus or banks that offer this service. You can also easily withdraw money from ATMs, which are generally easy to find.

Which currency to bring

The currency from your home country; euros, Canadian dollars, etc., can all be exchanged without difficulty. You can also easily request Swiss francs from your bank before departure, though this doesn’t necessarily mean the exchange rate will be better than on-site.

Payment methods

Returning home

If you don’t plan to return to the country or Switzerland, you can easily exchange any remaining Swiss francs when you get back. However, as always, it’s best to avoid ending your trip with excess local currency that you’ll need to exchange later.
