Can you travel to receive medical assistance in dying?

I know that Belgium and the Netherlands offer euthanasia for the mentally ill and was wondering if this was available to foreigners?

No, it isn´t available to foreigners in Belgium and the Netherlands. There is only one VAD association in Switzerland that accepts applications from mentally ill people. But the chance of being approved is extremely low, almost zero. And the process is extremely difficult, takes a long time and costs even more than the normal application. I do not recommend to try it.
