home search help worldguide ... Related Weblinks Liechtenstein Nod off and you might miss Liechtenstein - it's more akin to a big ski run than a regular European country. You could even be forgiven for thinking that it was part of Switzerland: its currency is Swiss, all travel documents valid for Switzerland are also valid for Liechtenstein, and the only border formalities are on the Austrian side. You can look for differences between Liechtenstein and Switzerland but you're kidding yourself if you think you've found many. Liechtenstein issues its own stamps (which draw some of the more philatelically minded); and unlike Switzerland it joined the United Nations in 1990, and the European Economic Area (EEA) in 1995. Apart from that, it's pretty much business as usual in the Alps - skiing, fine wines and clean mountain air.
