If the applicant has entered into a registered partnership with a Swiss citizen, on making the application, he or she must prove that he or she:
has resided for at least five years in Switzerland, and for one year immediately prior to making the application; and
has lived for three years with this person in a registered partnership.
The shorter length of residence in paragraph 1 letter a also applies in the event that one of the two partners acquired Swiss citizenship after registration of the partnership through:
reinstatement of citizenship; or
through simplified naturalisation based on descent from a Swiss parent.
