Einbürgerung Zürich: Ablauf, Kosten und Grundkenntnistest

Applicants for ordinary naturalisation in the canton of Zurich must show basic knowledge of Switzerland, the canton and the Zurich municipal system in the Grundkenntnistest (GKT), unless they completed five years of compulsory school (three at lower secondary) or an upper-secondary qualification in Switzerland. The test has 50 multiple-choice questions with four options, drawn at random from a published catalogue of 350: 35 on Switzerland, 10 on the canton and 5 on the municipalities. It is passed with 60%, 30 of 50, and is taken on a computer or tablet at a place the municipality names. The canton sets no fee or time limit for the test itself: the City of Zurich charges nothing, the provider WBK Dübendorf charges CHF 195 for a 50-minute session. The catalogue, a learning brochure and a practice test are free on zh.ch.
