Forum Question Posted By: Replies:
Liechtenstein Visa checking at borders.
Posted: Fri March 20, 2009 06:33 AM UTC
Hello everyone.
Me and my friends are going to visit Liechtenstein soon! As we were told - it's ok to get a shengen visa with multiple entries, but one of my friends have a problem. The embassy made an error and made a visa for him with only 1 entrance permit.
So the question is: is there any check at Swiss\Liechtenstein border or it's free to travel? If there is noone - he'll be able to visit Liechtenstein without any problem as noone will check his entries, but if there is some control - it would be a problem.
Has someone traveled from Switzerland to Liechtenstein recently, so we could get the most full info?

The situation with Liechtenstein is complicated. Currently Liechtenstein is not part of the Schengen Area, but it will become part later this year. This is a problem at the moment, as Switzerland has joined the Schengen area, and traditionally the border between Switzerland and Liechtenstein was always open.

Currently the situation is as follows:
- Switzerland - Lichtentstein border is still open. (It would be pointless to build expensive border checkpoints, only to tear them down in a year), but there is video surveillance. Passports are not checked.
- Lichtenstein - Austria border is still manned, and passport checks are still preformed (by Swiss borderguards!)

If you enter Liechtenstein from Switzerland (either from Buchs, Sevelen or Trübbach) there is no check, if you enter from Austria to Liechtenstein there is a check
