Switzerland has four official languages, so at least that many words for "cheese". There are also over 400 varieties of cheese manufactured there. You're going to need to be a LOT more specific.
The traditional cheese-from-Switzerland most closely resembling what people in the US mean when they say "Swiss cheese" (i.e. cheese with holes in it) is Emmentaler, made in the area around the city of Emmental. (The other traditional cheese-from-Switzerland you're most likely to have heard of is Gruyere, which like Emmentaler is a firm pale yellow cheese, but lacks the holes.)

Swiss Cheese comes from what district of Switzerland?
If the label says Swiss cheese, that actually means it is _not_ made in Switzerland. Think about it this way, if Swiss on the label meant it came from Switzerland, that would mean they either only produce one type of cheese there or else they would call a bunch of different cheese the same thing. Calling it "Swiss" means it is made in the style the Swiss use. The resulting cheese is basically a clone of Emmental, an actual cheese made in Switzerland. The generic labeling term is used (as far as I know) only in the U.S., Canada, and Australia.Answer 2It depends which country you are in. In most European countries, if it says "Swiss Cheese" it must come from Switzerland, otherwise the shop is fraudulently advertising.There are lots of different types of Swiss Cheese, Emmental, Appenzell, Gruyère etc.But US consumer law allows things to be called "Swiss" which are not actually from Switzerland.
