FAQ
Common Questions
Who needs to take the Basic Knowledge Test?
Anyone applying for Swiss citizenship in Canton Zurich must pass the Grundkenntnistest. Find full details on the Canton Zurich migration website.
Are these the actual exam questions?
Yes. Canton Zurich publishes all questions in their official question bank PDF. We've taken all official questions and built an interactive study platform around them.
Why not just study the free PDF?
You can. The PDF is the official source and it is free. SwissFlashcards is for candidates who want the same official questions in a study system: adaptive sessions, progress tracking, mobile practice, and 50-question mock exams. See the full comparison on the PDF vs app page.
Is the app available in English and German?
Yes. The app interface and all questions are available in both English and German. We recommend practising in German whenever possible, since that's the best way to prepare for the real test, and only switching to English when you want to check a translation or clarify a question you're unsure about. You can toggle the language in seconds from the app nav or footer.
Do I need to install anything?
No. SwissFlashcards is a web app that works in any browser. Bookmark it on your phone, tablet, or computer.
How does adaptive practice work?
The app tracks which questions you've seen and how often you get them right. Practice sessions automatically prioritise the questions you find hardest, so your study time is always effective.
Is this a subscription?
No. It's a one-time payment of CHF 25 for 12 months of full, unlimited access — no recurring charges.
