I'm Switzerland there are different categories of ebikes. Bikes under 20km/h (25km/h pedal assisted) 500w max do not require anything other than you must be over 14.
Ebikes that go faster (30 km/h or 45km/h pedal assisted max) 1000w max require a min. age of 16 and a special M license or vehicle license. Additionally you are required to get a plate for the Ebike and you must wear a helmet.
All ebikes require day time running lights and fast ebikes will also require a tachometer in 2024.
We do have issues with a new type of rollers that have replaced the old mopets. Those you can drive without any licenses or helmet if you are older than 16. This will probably change however even though they don't go over 20km/h they can still be dangerous.
