New travel restrictions to Sweden
23 Dec 2021
Information from the Swedish Police relating to changes in the entry ban to Sweden.
From 21 December the government changed the entry ban: the same requirements now apply for all foreign travelers from the EU / EEA when entering Sweden. This means, among other things, that a negative covid-19 test (maximum 72 hours old) or the EU covid certificate, except in some cases, will now be required also when entering from a Nordic country.
On 22 December, the government again decided to change the entry ban as of 28 December : all foreign travelers, regardless of which country they travel from, must be able to show a negative test result for ongoing covid 19 infection (maximum 48 hours old) on arrival in Sweden. Vaccine or recovery certificates can no longer be used instead of a negative test. Exceptions apply to certain categories, e.g. border commuters.
