  • @Karlson: actually not, this one is way more clear cut – vartec Jun 20 '13 at 15:50
  • Actually still duplicate but of the different question – Karlson Jun 20 '13 at 15:51
  • @Karlson: you're right. – vartec Jun 20 '13 at 16:00
  • I think this is not a duplicate. The other question is specifically for single entry Schengen visa. – Vince Sep 12 '13 at 08:35

    The situation is the same as http://travel.stackexchange.com/questions/14692/can-i-travel-to-paris-for-a-day-with-a-single-entry-visa-for-schengen-from-switz (which should have been picked as a duplicate). Your Schengen visa is good for entering Schengen at any place, including Switzerland on your way to Spain and back. – Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' Sep 15 '13 at 09:53

No you don't. Switzerland is in the Schengen zone, that will be your point of entry into Schengen. Your further flight from Switzerland to Spain is a flight inside Schengen zone, which means no passport checks by immigrations/customs.

  • @momo17: No, you don't have to enter Spain first. You can enter Schengen zone at any place. That question has been answered on this site numerous time already. – vartec Jun 21 '13 at 08:09
