Do I need a ETIAS, European Travel Information and Authorization System) Document to visit Switzerland in September 2026?
I will be flying in and out of Zurich and only visiting Switzerland.

At the present time, no. It will be announced when the time comes with a date certain. Currently it says "last quarter of 2026" so that would be no sooner than October 1, 2026.

While you may not have to deal with ETIAS in September, you will still have to enter using the EES system. If this is your first visit to Europe since EES was implemented, you'll have to go through the fingerprinting, etc.
