Migration concerns us

The State Secretariat for Migration (SEM) is responsible for all matters pertaining to asylum, foreign nationals, and citizenship law in Switzerland. The Admission Residence Division is specifically responsible for examining applications for entry into Switzerland by foreign citizens (visas) and any measures for removal from Swiss territory (deportations, entry bans). It likewise issues decisions regarding the approval of the issuance or extension of residence permits (with or without gainful employment), advises the cantonal migration authorities, and ensures the application of the relevant federal legislation.
