Just a moment, securing your connection...

The 2026 refresh also addresses several community requests, including improved thermal management and a higher refresh rate display as standard. However, as is often the case with Framework, the rollout is staged. The US and Canadian markets are getting first priority for the initial production batches, while the Asia-Pacific and parts of Europe, including Switzerland, often face longer wait times or higher base prices due to regional distribution costs.

Why buying from the US makes sense for Swiss residents

You might be wondering why you shouldn't just wait for the local Swiss release. The math is quite simple. When you shop US store versions of the Framework site, the base price is significantly lower than the projected European MSRP. By purchasing from the US, you can often save around $250 on the total cost, even after factoring in the logistics.

Furthermore, US customers are currently seeing shipping dates that are three to four months ahead of international regions. If you want the latest Intel Core Ultra Series 3 hardware before the end of the year, ordering from North America is the most reliable path. To do this effectively, most people use a freight forwarder to bridge the gap between US-only shipping and their home in Switzerland.

Shipping Estimates for Switzerland

To help you plan your budget, I have put together an estimate of what the physical package looks like. This is crucial when you want to estimate shipping cost before hitting the buy button.

A plan to get your laptop from a US store

If you have never imported electronics before, here is a simple way to look at the process. First, you need a tax-free US address. This allows you to avoid paying US state sales tax (which can be up to 10% in some states) because the goods are being sent to a warehouse specifically for export.

Once your Framework 13 arrives at the warehouse, you will be notified to forward packages to your Swiss address. This step-by-step guide ensures that your high-value laptop is inspected and repacked if necessary to withstand the flight across the Atlantic. Using a professional comGateway account simplifies this because they handle the generation of the commercial invoice required for Swiss customs.

What to expect with Swiss customs and VAT

While you save on US sales tax, you must account for Swiss import tax. In Switzerland, the VAT (MWST) is currently 8.1%. Because the Framework Laptop is a computer, it generally falls under a category with zero or very low import duties, but you will still be charged the VAT on the declared value plus the cost of shipping.

Check our guide on shipping rules if you plan on adding extra items like specialized thermal pastes or third-party batteries, as some liquids or loose batteries are considered prohibited items. However, the standard 2026 Framework 13 kit is perfectly safe for international transit. By following this blueprint, you can have the most repairable laptop of 2026 on your desk in Zurich or Geneva while the rest of the world is still waiting for the local pre-order button to turn green.
