Elections to the Council of the Swiss Abroad – you have until 11 May 2025 to cast your vote

The Swiss Abroad are set to vote on the new composition of the Council of the Swiss Abroad (CSA) for the 2025–29 term. As we have explained in recent editions of “Swiss Review”, expatriates in specific countries and regions can elect their local delegates directly via e-voting. A lot of time and effort went into organising the vote, and the election campaign is now in full swing.

If you are a Swiss Abroad in one of the eligible countries/regions, are aged 18 or over and registered your email address with the competent Swiss representation (embassy or consulate) before the deadline, you are entitled to participate in direct voting. What else do you have to do? Consult the “Swiss Review” regional pages or the OSA website (www.revue.link/asr25) to find out more about the people standing for election in your country or region.

Please remember to use the voting code that the FDFA sent to you by email on 12 April 2025. You can cast your vote by Sunday, 11 May 2025, at the latest.

The interests of the “Fifth Switzerland” are best served by a strong and representative CSA, not least in today’s political climate. So please vote!
