Turks in Switzerland (Turkish: İsviçre'deki Türkler), also referred to as Swiss Turks (Turkish: İsviçreli Türkler) and Turkish Swiss people (Turkish: Türk İsviçreliler), are Swiss residents of Turkish origin. The majority of Swiss Turks descend from the Republic of Turkey; however there has also been Turkish migration waves from other post-Ottoman countries including ethnic Turkish communities which have come to Switzerland from the Balkans (e.g. from Bulgaria, Greece, Kosovo, North Macedonia and Romania), the island of Cyprus, and more recently Iraq and Syria.
