Book an Appointment

Once you have completed the form “Information for investigation of Swedish citizenship” and have the necessary certificates regarding your citizenship, you can book an appointment via our website – it is not possible to book an appointment by telephone or email. 

If, at the time of application, it becomes apparent that the required forms have not been completed or the requested certificates cannot be presented, the embassy will not be able to process the case. In such instances, you may need to book a new appointment when they become available.

If the booking page says “no available appointments at the moment,” it means there are currently no bookable slots. New appointments are published on the 15th every third month, that is, on 15 February May, August and November. If the 15th falls on a weekend or public holiday, the appointments will be published on the next business day. Due to staffing changes, we are publishing available appointments one month at a time during the spring.

Due to high demand at the passport section, waiting times are currently long. Cancellations occur frequently, so we recommend checking the booking page regularly. If you are unable to attend your booked appointment, we kindly ask you to cancel it using the link provided in your booking confirmation email.

Collecting the Passport

Passport collection is available on Wednesdays and Thursdays between 13:00 and 15:00 – no appointment is required. Passports and national ID cards are produced in Sweden and sent to the Embassy. It takes approximately 2–3 weeks from the time the application is approved until the passport is ready for collection at the Embassy.
