At present, we have no reason to believe that the Embassy will receive more resources for passport operations.
It is the government, or the authority decided by the government, that decides what - and to what extent - embassies issue passports and national ID cards.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs' position has been to concentrate the possibility of applying for Swedish passports/ID cards to fewer foreign authorities, especially in countries in relative proximity to Sweden.
Sweden has diplomatic relations with almost all States in the world. It has embassies and consulates in around half of these. Sweden's foreign representation consists of approximately 100 missions abroad and 350 honorary consulates.
