Switzerland is _not_ in the EEA, it has a sui generis bilateral agreement with the EU that implements some but not all of the EU law that applies to the EEA countries automatically. It's very contentious in EU-Swiss diplomacy, because the EU doesn't like that the agreement with Switzerland keeps needing to be renegotiated to incorporate new EU law, whereas Switzerland sees this as a necessary element of maintaining its sovereignty.
