We describe the development of ACP in Switzerland during the last decade in the German- and French-speaking cantons and on the national level. In 2013, a revision of the Swiss civil law came into force, declaring advance directives (ADs) as binding. Since then, ACP has been researched and implemented primarily by universities and university hospitals. Despite the foundation of the national association "ACP Swiss" in 2020, several national initiatives, and a roadmap for a national implementation, many challenges and barriers still remain. There is, however, reasonable hope to implement high-quality ACP throughout Switzerland within the next ten years.
