Zoll at the border


Surrounded by EU countries, Switzerland isn't a member though it shares numerous bilateral treaties with the EU. There are border control posts on some highways and this is the one between Austria (Bregenz) and Switzerland (St. Margrethen).

(Zoll is toll or customs, and refers to taxes that have to paid on certain purchases made in EU countries).

Tanya: Purely by chance -- I was fumbling with my papers and took a quick shot while I could.

Chuckeroon: Sorry I haven't been out to take wheat shots like I promised.
