02. How do I obtain a Swiss vehicle registration document and a Swiss license plate?

Foreign vehicles must have a Swiss vehicle registration document and a Swiss license plate if:

  • they have been used in Switzerland for more than one year, or
  • the vehicle owner has been in Switzerland for more than one year and has used the vehicle here for more than one month, or
  • the vehicles are used for the transport of persons or goods within Switzerland and this transport is against payment.
