I am in Switzerland. I graduated with a master's degree and studied for a doctorate. Do I need to get a new visa?

According to the regulations of the Swiss Federal Office for Migration, if you have completed your studies in Switzerland and obtained a master's degree, and then want to continue studying for a doctorate in Switzerland, you need to apply for a new visa. This is because Switzerland has different requirements and restrictions on different types of visas, and master's visas and doctoral visas are also different. It is necessary to submit a new visa application to the Swiss Federal Office for Migration and provide relevant materials, such as admission notice, proof of funds, health certificate, etc.

When applying for a new visa, you should pay attention to some details. For example, you need to submit your application before the visa expires, otherwise you may be rejected.
