Dear team,

I just wants to know, do we need to keep original passports with us as a photo identification proof of all of our family persons or is it enough to keep soft copy of passport pictures in our mobile.

You are supposed to carry with you your official identity document when travelling around.

Hi Asghar khan,

A national ID or a driving license can sometimes be used in lieu of passports.

Regards,

Anna

I once had a Swiss train conductor insist on seeing my original passport when verifying my Swiss Travel Pass. Fortunately I carry mine at all times when outside my hotel.

Hi Ashgar,

That’s correct, you need to carry your actual passport when traveling with the Swiss Travel Pass. It can be checked to verify you’re the rightful owner f the pass. See https://www.myswissalps.com/swisstravelpass/howtouse as well, and https://www.myswissalps.com/visa for more information about the travel documents that are required.
