Passports

Liechtenstein is a member of the Schengen Area and the European Economic Area (EEA), but not of the European Union. Border control and customs matters are administered jointly with Switzerland.

EU and EEA nationals: You may travel with a valid passport or national ID card. Transport providers such as airlines, train operators, or bus companies may still require you to present an ID to confirm your identity.

Non-EU nationals: To enter Liechtenstein, you must have a valid passport issued within the past ten years and valid for at least three months beyond your intended departure from the Schengen Area. You may also be asked to show proof of onward travel and sufficient funds for your stay.

Passport note

Passport and visa regulations are subject to change, and airlines may have different requirements. Information is correct at the time of writing; travellers should check with the relevant embassy before departure, particularly when transiting through a third country. We accept no liability for any inconvenience or loss arising from changes to these requirements.
