If you are staying in a Lausanne hotel, youth hostel, bed & breakfast or at a campsite where the tourist tax is applied, you are entitled to the Lausanne Transport Card. With this card, you can freely use all public transport (bus, train, metro) in Lausanne and its surroundings during your whole stay (maximum 15 days). Please note that stays in private accommodation are not eligible for this offer.

TIME ZONE
Lausanne follows Central European Time (CET) defined as the standard time of Central Europe, always one hour ahead of UTC.

CURRENCY
The official currency used in Switzerland is the Swiss Franc (CHF). We advise you to carry a small amount of cash.

ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
The voltage in Switzerland, as in most of Europe, is 230V/50 Hz.
Switzerland uses type C (2-pin) and Type J (3-pin) plugs. (Type C 2-pin plugs also fit J sockets.)
Most power sockets are designed for three pin round plugs. The standard continental type plug with two round pins, applied for many electrical travel products, may be used. We recommend having a travel adapter for Swiss plugs.
