Customs registration, controlled/restricted goods, sanctions screening, and the official customs authority.
AI-drafted, editorially reviewed. Confirm specifics with the official authority.
Sweden is inside the EU customs union, so the decisive question is whether goods cross the EU border at all. Trade with other member states involves no customs declaration — the obligations there are VAT reporting and, above thresholds, statistical reporting. Trade with countries outside the EU goes through Tullverket with customs declarations, an EORI number, tariff classification and origin, and any licences the goods require.
- Intra-EU trade needs no customs declaration — the duties there are VAT and statistics.
- Trade outside the EU needs an EORI number and customs declarations through Tullverket.
- Classification, origin and any product licences apply on top of the declaration itself.
