Swedish passport holders enter Switzerland freely under the EU-Swiss bilateral agreements on free movement. No visa, no time limit on short stays. Bring your Swedish passport or national ID card (both work). Switzerland is in the Schengen area but not the EU, so flights from Sweden have no passport control on arrival.
For stays beyond 3 months, register at the Einwohnerkontrolle (residents' registration office) of your municipality. EU/EFTA citizens with employment receive a B permit (5 years, renewable). Job seekers can stay up to 6 months while looking for work. The registration requires proof of employment or sufficient funds and health insurance. Swiss health insurance (KVG/LAMal) is mandatory and must be arranged within 3 months of arrival, costing CHF 300 to CHF 500 per month depending on canton and deductible.

Snow does occur but is well managed. Temperatures range from −2 to 5°C.
Summers (June–August) are warm at 22–28°C with afternoon thunderstorms that can be intense but brief. Spring and autumn are mild and variable. Hochnebel fog season (October–January) is the primary operational risk to plan around.
