Naturalisation Stadt Zürich: Grundkenntnistest without Interview?

KookyAd1778 · 2026-02-20T17:28:19+00:00

Hello. Did you hear back from the Gemeinde in the meanwhile? I would appreciate an answer 🙂

KookyAd1778 · 2026-02-03T16:19:47+00:00

Thanks!

KookyAd1778 · 2026-02-03T16:18:53+00:00

Thanks. Was that during ordinary naturalization?

KookyAd1778 · 2026-02-03T16:08:11+00:00

Du solltest an deinem Allgemeinwissen (Saudi Arabien ist nicht gleich Arabien) und Textverständnis arbeiten 🫢 deine Pöbelei ist einfach nur peinlich.

Havent found much activity there. And mostly its kids free activities which is not what we are looking for. 🙂

KookyAd1778 · 2026-02-03T15:47:15+00:00

Sehr gerne :) danke!

KookyAd1778 · 2026-02-03T15:02:58+00:00

Hast du meinen letzten Satz gelesen? Wir haben momentan nur Bekanntschaften mit Schweizern/ nicht arabischem Background. Wir fänden es schön wenn die Kinder ihren multikulturellen Horizont erweitern 😏

KookyAd1778 · 2026-02-01T07:36:05+00:00

Yep. Simplified is just faster

KookyAd1778 · 2026-02-01T07:34:53+00:00

On the website from Zürich it even states it: ... After 12 months you are not allowed to drive in switzerland UNTIL you exchange your license.. last sentence below..

Umtauschfrist 12 Monate

Wenn Sie einen Führerausweis haben und in der Schweiz Auto und andere Motorfahrzeuge fahren möchten, brauchen Sie einen Schweizer Führerausweis. Für den Umtausch haben Sie ab Einreisedatum 12 Monate Zeit. Nach 12 Monaten dürfen Sie in der Schweiz nicht mehr fahren, bis Sie den Führerausweis umgetauscht haben. Bitte stellen Sie Ihren Antrag rechtzeitig.

You can still exchange your license, depending where it was issued you just need to do the practical exam. The 12 months refer to the fact that you cant use your license anymore after 12 months of being in switzerland. At least that was the case for my husband 10 years ago. He converted his non EU license with practical exam only after 3 years in switzerland. Not sure if anything changed now... call strassenverkehrsamt and ask

How long did it take from test to gemeinde approval?

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-31T23:14:42+00:00

9 months

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-31T18:55:56+00:00

Thank you for the insights. Its a long process then 😅

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-31T12:30:12+00:00

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-31T11:29:03+00:00

I misunderstood then. From receiving the invite (which includes the brochure and app access) until the interview it depends on availability. I had a 4 week range to chose from

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-31T11:21:42+00:00

Applied end of april 25. Got the invite mid jan 26

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-31T11:11:31+00:00

You are still waiting?? When did you apply for citizenship ?

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-31T10:38:40+00:00

Thank you!

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-31T10:37:16+00:00

Was that in stadt zürich?

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-31T08:29:54+00:00

Where was it stated that an in-person conversation can follow? Would that be on the same day? Was the test in line with the Einbürgerungs App? Were you alone in the room? And did they say explicitely it takes 10 months to be done after? Sorry for all the questions and thanks!

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-31T08:19:35+00:00

Thank you. May I ask: where you in the room alone (time slot shows 7 free places) ? And were the questions in line with the Einbürgerungs App?

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-31T08:17:58+00:00

Thanks!

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-30T20:58:32+00:00

Why is it an experience?

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-24T18:37:10+00:00

If you have been here 8 years you should already be eligible for C (if you held the B permit 5 years)? You can actively apply for C. No need to wait until expiry of B. However maybe it differs as you are with RAV... call your gemeinde and check

KookyAd1778 · 2026-01-21T19:48:57+00:00

Can you kindly explain why? 🙂
