Who Makes Your Calls into Switzerland
Switzerland is home to a large number of international companies: headquarters in Zurich and Geneva, pharma in Basel, and banking, insurance and commodity trading across the country. Many of them work in English every day.
Swiss rules allow advertising calls in principle, with one important check: numbers marked with an asterisk in the phone directory are off-limits.
Who this is for
Our callers call in English. In Switzerland, that works for multinationals, banks, pharma companies, commodity traders and international organisations, many of which work in English. For local firms that work in German, French or Italian, a native-language caller will do better.

Cold Calling Rules in Switzerland
Is B2B cold calling legal in Switzerland? Yes. Advertising calls are allowed in principle, but under the Swiss Act against Unfair Competition (UWG) it's unfair to call a number marked with an asterisk (*) in the phone directory, which means the subscriber doesn't want advertising calls.
Here's how calling into Switzerland works, and what we do on every campaign:
- Under the Swiss Act against Unfair Competition (UWG), advertising calls are allowed in principle, but calling a number marked with an asterisk (*) in the public phone directory is unfair. The asterisk means the subscriber doesn't want advertising calls.
- We check the numbers on your list against the directory and remove asterisk entries before calling.
- Your caller's number is always shown, and they say who they are and who they're calling for.
- Switzerland's Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) applies to named contacts. Anyone who asks not to be called again is never called again.
