Liberia to Liechtenstein: What You Need to Know
Liechtenstein is the world's sixth smallest country and one of only two doubly landlocked nations. Despite its tiny size, Liechtenstein is a Schengen member and a wealthy financial center. Liechtenstein does not have its own embassies abroad; Switzerland handles its consular and visa matters. This means Liberian applicants should apply for a Schengen visa at the Swiss Embassy in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, specifying Liechtenstein as a destination if visiting. The Schengen visa issued will grant access to Liechtenstein as with all other Schengen states.
How to Get There
From Monrovia, the route to Liechtenstein is the same as to Switzerland: via Brussels or Frankfurt to Zurich (ZRH), then by train to Sargans and bus to Vaduz. Total journey times from Monrovia are approximately 14-18 hours to Zurich.
