Embassy of Sweden

Due to the rapid developments of COVID-19, the Embassy is implementing a number of actions to mitigate the spread of the coronavirus and to ensure the health and safety of our colleagues and our community.

Therefore, the Embassy is only offering limited consular services at the moment and will be closed to visitors as of March 26 until April 17, 2020. Only extremely urgent passport and visa applications will be considered. Appointments have to be scheduled via e-mail: ambassaden.washington-visum@gov.se. If you already have an appointment scheduled, you will be contacted by the Embassy.

If you urgently need to visit the embassy, please e-mail ambassaden.washington@gov.se and we will contact you as soon as possible.

Phone hours are: Monday-Friday 10 am - 2 pm. 
We receive many calls during our phone hours, please try again soon if you can't get through.

All visa questions are answered via ambassaden.washington-visum@gov.se only at the moment.
