How to get an EORI number in Sweden
- Confirm your business is established in Sweden (or has the required customs registration there).

- Receive your EORI number — usually within a few working days — and validate it below before your first declaration.
Official source: Swedish Customs (Tullverket).
Cost, validity and processing time
- The EORI number is free — Swedish Customs (Tullverket) does not charge for issuing it.
- It is valid EU-wide. Once any member state has issued your EORI, you do not need another one to declare goods in other EU countries.
- A business established outside the EU registers in the member state where it first lodges a customs declaration or appoints a representative — not necessarily Sweden.
- Processing normally takes a few working days, though incomplete applications are the most common cause of delay.
