Anchored at the place of origin

Swiss citizenship lives in the family register of your place of origin — the same register that anchors civil-status certificates. That’s where we work.

Questions about this document

Is this the same as the place-of-origin entry on my ID?
The ID mentions it; this service documents it — certified extracts from the register proving the citizenship line, which consulates and authorities can rely on.
My Swiss ancestor emigrated a century ago — can citizenship be traced?
Tracing is often possible through family registers; whether citizenship survived depends on the legal history of each generation. We assess honestly in the quote before you spend.
Do consulates accept your documents?
We deliver certified originals from the competent Swiss registers — precisely the documents consulates request; apostille and translation attach when the file crosses borders.
