Information on Passports and National ID cards

In the U.S., you can apply for/renew a passport or a national ID card at the Embassy of Sweden in Washington DC, the Consulate General in New York or the Consulate General in San Francisco.

Please note that a verification of Swedish citizenship is conducted every time you apply for a passport. The instructions on this website apply regardless if you apply for a passport for the first time of if you are renewing an existing passport.

Book Well in Advance
We recommend that you apply for/renew a passport/national ID-card well in advance, before it expires or you need to travel. Many countries require 3 or 6 months validity of passports for entry. 


Sweden and the U.S. has an agreement that states that a Swedish passport need only to be valid for the duration of the trip when traveling to the U.S.
