What's available

HBO Max is available in Switzerland and gives you access to a solid library of HBO originals and Warner Bros. titles. You can stream popular series like The Last of Us, House of the Dragon, Succession, The White Lotus, and Euphoria. Films like Dune: Part Two, Oppenheimer, and the DC extended universe catalog are also on the platform. Max Originals such as The Idol and True Detective: Night Country are included as well.

What you're missing

Compared to the US library, the Swiss version of Max is noticeably thinner. Several titles are missing due to regional licensing deals:

  • Curb Your Enthusiasm — not available in Switzerland
  • Insecure — held back by local streaming rights
  • Barry — unavailable in the Swiss catalog
  • The Wire — a classic that remains region-locked
  • Six Feet Under — missing entirely from Swiss Max
  • Many Warner Bros. theatrical releases appear later or not at all in Switzerland compared to the US

How to access other regions

A VPN lets you connect to a server in another country, making Max think you're browsing from that location. To access the full US library, connect to a US server before opening Max. Our primary recommendation is NordVPN — it consistently unblocks Max, offers fast speeds for HD streaming, and has a large pool of US servers to choose from. Simply install NordVPN, select a United States server, and log into your Max account as usual.

Pricing

Max in Switzerland is priced in Swiss Francs. The ad-supported plan starts at approximately CHF 5.99 per month, while the ad-free plan runs around CHF 9.99 per month. The Ultimate plan, which includes 4K streaming, is available at roughly CHF 15.99 per month. Pricing can change, so check Max directly for the latest rates.

Our recommendation

If you're in Switzerland and want the best Max experience, start with the ad-free plan and use NordVPN to unlock the complete US library. You'll immediately gain access to dozens of titles that Swiss licensing keeps off the table, including beloved HBO classics that are simply unavailable in your region. The combination of a Max subscription and NordVPN costs less than most cable packages and gives you far more flexibility. It's the most practical setup for any serious streaming fan based in Switzerland.
