Buying Léman Pass

Adam Szalai Hungary

Hi dear experts,
Hi experts!
I really need some clarification:
Me and my wife are going to spend 3 months in Switzerland (having accomodation next to Geneva border in France). We won’t have permanent address in Switzerland. I ran into that we cannot buy Half Fare Travelcard without having a Swiss Pass. It appears to have the same situation with Léman Pass. When I want to buy it online, the websites ask for residence: France or Switzerland.. We are going to live in Airbnb in Ferney, so I would like to have a two zone Léman Pass (Geneva and Zone 250).
My question is: Can I buy it personally, without a physical swiss pass?
Or what can I do?
Many thanks in advance.

Hi Adam Szalai Hungary

I suggest to buy all these passes after your arrival in Switzerland at a ticket office. You can obtain a temporary SwissPass card for the first days of you stay.

Kind Regards

Danhiel Thank you for your suggestion. The temporary swisspass card can be extended for a longer period?

Danhiel

Adam Szalai Hungary No, you will receive your cards in 10 days, I suppose that it is possible to give a postal address in France. A lot of people live in France and work in Switzerland.

Adam Szalai Hungary

Danhiel Yes, but we are going live in an Airbnb, so technically we do not have address to have post deliveries.

Adam Szalai Hungary Sorry, I don’t know what to do in such situations. Someone else could perhaps help you.
