Switzerland is a major global trading nation known for its exports of pharmaceuticals, chemicals, precision instruments, watches, and machinery. It is not an EU member but maintains extensive bilateral trade agreements with the EU and applies its own customs tariff schedule. Switzerland is a significant destination and transit point for high-value US exports, particularly in life sciences and financial goods.
Switzerland applies its own national customs tariff (Swiss Customs Tariff, Tares) to imports, as it is not an EU member and does not apply the EU Common External Tariff. Rates are generally low due to Switzerland's liberal trade policy.
Switzerland's top exports include pharmaceutical products, chemical compounds, precision instruments, watches and clocks, and machinery, with pharmaceuticals representing the largest share of export value.
As of the latest available data, Switzerland and the United States do not have a bilateral free trade agreement in force, though both are WTO members and trade under MFN tariff rates.
