Here you will find information about Schengen visas, including how to apply in New Zealand for a Schengen visa to visit Sweden for up to 90 days.
In some places where there is no Swedish Embassy, including New Zealand, Sweden is represented by another Schengen country for the processing of Schengen visas, this is governed through a Schengen visa representation agreement.
The representing country is responsible for the entire visa application process from start to finish, and may choose to use the services of an external service provider.
In New Zealand, Sweden is represented by the Netherlands, who uses the services of the external service provider VFS Global.
Apply for a Swedish Schengen visa in New Zealand
If you are a third-country national (non-EU citizen) who resides in New Zealand and want to apply for a Schengen visa to visit Sweden for up to 90 days, your application should be submitted through VFS Global.
The application is then processed by the Netherlands’ Embassy in Wellington.
