Our mission is to represent Sweden and the Swedish government in the UK and to promote Swedish interests.
The Swedish Embassy has a continuous dialogue with British representatives, such as regarding cooperation within the EU and now in particular concerning Brexit. In addition, the task of the Embassy includes working through information and collaboration with the cultural and the defense sectors, as well as with industry, public authorities and other organizations.
The Embassy’s Consular section handles a large amount of applications for Swedish passports, registrations of children and newborns, visas, and other consular and official matters.
