What's available

Amazon Prime Video in Switzerland gives you access to a solid library of content, including many of Amazon's own originals. You can watch hit series like The Boys, Reacher, The Rings of Power, Fallout, and Jack Ryan. On the film side, you'll find titles such as Air, The Covenant, and Road House (2024). Licensed content includes popular films and series from major studios, and the platform supports French, German, and Italian audio and subtitles — useful across Switzerland's language regions.

What you're missing

The Swiss library is noticeably smaller than the US catalogue. Several titles available in the US are blocked in Switzerland due to licensing restrictions. Missing content includes:

  • Justified and Justified: City Primeval
  • Sneaky Pete
  • A large portion of the licensed film back-catalogue, including many classic Hollywood titles
  • Some older seasons of US network shows that stream freely in the US
  • Certain documentary series and stand-up specials exclusive to the US region

In short, if you browse the US library and then switch to your Swiss account, you'll notice gaps — especially in older licensed content.

How to access other regions

A VPN lets you route your connection through a server in another country, making Amazon Prime Video think you're browsing from that location. To access the full US library, connect your VPN to a United States server, then open Amazon Prime Video as normal. Our primary recommendation is NordVPN — it reliably unblocks Amazon Prime Video, offers fast speeds for HD and 4K streaming, and has servers in multiple US cities. Simply install NordVPN, choose a US server, and start watching.

Pricing

Amazon Prime Video in Switzerland is available as part of an Amazon Prime membership, currently priced at around CHF 8.99 per month or CHF 89.90 per year. A standalone Prime Video subscription without full Prime benefits may also be available at a lower monthly rate. Pricing can change, so check the Amazon Switzerland website for the latest figures.

Our recommendation

Amazon Prime Video is worth having in Switzerland, especially if you follow Amazon Originals like The Boys or Reacher. However, if you want access to the deeper US catalogue, pairing your subscription with NordVPN is the smartest move. Connect to a US server and you unlock significantly more content for very little extra cost. It's a simple upgrade that makes your Prime subscription go much further.
