Switzerland at the UEFA European Championship

As of 2019, Switzerland has appeared at four UEFA European Championships, between 1996 and 2016 (when they co-hosted the event), as well as participating in the upcoming 2020 tournament. They survived the first round of a European end stage so far, but achieved one win in 2008 when they defeated Portugal (2–0), the European vice-champion at that moment.
