Federal base

Basic preparation: the official federal questions borrowed from another canton — not this canton’s real questions.

The real exam is oral. These values are for practice only and do not reproduce the official exam.

Real exam — How the test works

Oral interview, trilingual, no catalogue

Graubünden assesses knowledge orally, in the citizens' commune's naturalisation interview (a written test is only a commune option). There is no official catalogue and no sample questions — in any of the three cantonal languages. For now, we prepare you with the basic federal questions (taken from Zürich's Grundkenntnistest) — these are not the real interview questions.
