スイスの駐在員へのヒント
- UK / NI and every EU / EEA licence exchanges without theory exam or Kontrollfahrt — one of the most common expat wins in Switzerland.
- US, Canadian, Japanese, South Korean, Australian and Singaporean holders only need the Swiss theory exam — no Kontrollfahrt.
- The 12-month clock is strict: after it expires your foreign licence stops being valid for driving in Switzerland.
- Process is cantonal — the Strassenverkehrsamt of your canton sets the Umtausch fee, appointment system and required translations.
- Theory exam language is the official language of your canton: German in most of Switzerland, French in the Romandie (GE, VD, NE, JU, FR, VS), Italian in Ticino.

外国人として免許を取得した方のリアルな体験
「I find the service invaluable. It helped me immensely and I am impressed by the format and content. First class!」I have now passed my driving theory test. The course and information was great and very helpful. The reason I had to take the test is because I am living in Chile which does not recognise the driver licence of my mother country.
