Border control
Swedish police is required to control everyone entering or leaving Sweden to and from countries which are not part of the Schengen area. Border controls at external borders are mandatory regardless of citizenship.
Entry and exit regulations differ depending on your citizenship, which country you travel to or from, your purpose and your length of stay.
