Consultation on international transfer at Zurich Station

Altan8143

I booked a ticket from St. Gallen to Zurich HB on November 9, and then from Zurich to Paris. I will arrive at platform 32 in Zurich HB at 9:21 a.m., and then depart from platform 16 in Zurich HB to Paris at 9:34 a.m. This is the first time for me to take an international train in Zurich. I would like to ask if the international train requires additional baggage or certificate inspection and if there is any problem with my time arrangement?

Hi Altan8143

Changing trains in Switzerland is not a challenge. Once arrived at Zürich HB, platform 32 you simply follow the signs to platforms 3-18. Although doable, the transfer time is rather tight. If your ticket allows it, take an earlier train to have at least 30 minutes to change in Zürich; it would mean a pity if you miss the TGV just because IC1 was unexpectedly late.

There is no custom and passport procedure before boarding the train; all will happen on the train.

Wishing you good travel.

Best regards,
Roland
