Switzerland offers a simplified naturalization process to spouses of Swiss nationals. Getting a Swiss citizenship through residence permit is a rather long process. Undergoing naturalization through marriage however takes five years minimum. The conditions are that you have been married to a Swiss national for at least three years at the time of application and that you have lived in Switzerland for a total of five years.
