However, a foreign woman
who gained Swiss citizenship through marriage does not lose her Swiss citizenship in the event of
the termination of the marriage, if she entered the marriage in good faith.
VOLUNTARY: Voluntary renunciation of Swiss citizenship is permitted by law. Upon request,
a Swiss citizen will be released from Swiss citizenship if they do not have residence in
Switzerland, are at least 18 years old, and have another nationality or have been assured of
one. Contact the Swiss Embassy for details and proper paperwork.
INVOLUNTARY: According to the Swiss Consulate, there are no "realistic" conditions for the
involuntary loss of Swiss Citizenship. Therefore, Swiss citizens should not assume that the
acquisition of a new citizenship would cause their Swiss citizenship to be removed by default.
