Is the Schengen Visa also good for Switzerland? Or seperate visa required?

Switzerland has been part of the Schengen Area since December 2008. So yes, a Schengen visa is valid for Switzerland.

See Schengen Area for a list of Schengen members.

THANK YOU, that link is helpful

Watch out for any implications of France's temporary suspension of the Schengen agreement in order to keep out North Africans given Schengen visas by Italy in the hope of passing them on to other Schengen countries.

Yes just done it last week from Italy

To Switzerland
