Embassy of Sweden

Due to 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. We follow the guidelines and recommendations from local authorities. The plan is to gradually open as the District of Columbia Government moves into the different phases of reopening. 

Therefore, the Embassy is offering limited consular services by appointment only. Appointments have to be scheduled through one of the below e-mails or by calling 202-467-2600:

Passport services: ambassaden.washington-pass@gov.se
Visa services: ambassaden.washington-visum@gov.se 
All other questions: ambassaden.washington@gov.se 

Phone hours are: Monday-Friday 9:00 am - 4:00 pm (closed for lunch 12:00-1:00 pm). 

Please note: Washington, DC regularly updates its rules for visitors to the area. For example, there is a list for travelers to and from states that are classified as high-risk areas and requires self-quarantine or self-monitoring. The quarantine can be lifted with a negative Covid-19 test depending on the length of stay. We urge all visitors with appointments at the embassy for renewal of passports, visa interviews and any other consular matter to find out what applies to your state of departure before traveling to DC.
