I remember when I first crossed German-French border without even a passport check. There was just a flag post. That was a great moment.
Anyway, I wonder how Switzerland would rate on this list!
- cl3m 16y agoSwitzerland has 156 countries (rank 10) The full list is at http://www.henleyglobal.com/citizenship/visa-restrictions/ http://www.henleyglobal.com/citizenship/visa-restrictions/
- gaius 16y agoSwitzerland is fairly obnoxious towards immigrants tho' (e.g. it is pretty much impossible to naturalize as Swiss). It should be rights be difficult for Swiss to travel anywhere. I expect their private banking industry is what opens the doors...
- ciupicri 16y agoI fail to see what traveling has to do with immigration. They're different things.
- whyenot 16y agoExactly what about the swiss naturalization process makes it "pretty much impossible" and what is obnoxious about it? There is a residency requirement, a language fluency requirement, and you have to show that you have integrated in swiss society. It's not an easy process compared to many other countries, but also not impossible.
- _delirium 16y agoIt depends greatly on the area, but some parts of Switzerland have a requirement that all new citizenships must be approved by a local referendum. I'm not aware of many other countries where to get citizenship, the municipality you live in has to approve it in a popular vote.
