Switzerland is part of the Schengen Area, but not the European Union. In this video, we explain this difference and why being able to cross a border does not mean having the right to live and work in the country.

The EES, Entry and Exit System, introduced digital travel registration and biometric data collection for border control. Understand what changes when passing through immigration and how queues at European airports can affect your trip and connections.

We also talk about ETIAS, the travel authorization for Europe, system delays, and precautions to identify the official website and avoid fraudulent charges.

How does the 90-day rule within 180 days work in the Schengen Area? We explain why trips through Portugal, Italy, and Switzerland are included in the same count and what problems an overstay can cause.

Internal border controls and entry refusals for Brazilians are also discussed. See why the reason for your trip, documentation, and planning deserve attention before embarking on a journey to Europe.

And if your goal is to live in Switzerland, understand the difference between tourism, residence permits, and the Agreement on the Free Movement of Persons. We talk about European passports and why the rules for visiting the country are different from the rules for living and working here.
