The Swedish Embassy in Romania works to promote and expand the relations between Romania and Sweden in all policy sectors. An important activity of the embassy is to work for increased trade between the two countries by promoting Swedish companies present in Romania and/or companies planning to establish themselves here. This effort is made together with the local Business Sweden Office which can inform Swedish companies about export opportunities in Romania.

The embassy is involved in various initiatives to present Swedish literature, music, film and other forms of artistic expression to a Romanian audience. The embassy also works with consular issues related to Swedish citizens who require the embassy's assistance in different matters.

Consular services provided by the Embassy:

• Issuance of passports;
• Registration of Swedish citizens abroad;
• Renewal of driving licenses;
• Citizenship matters;
• Pensions and benefits;
• Issuance of records and certificates;
• Voting rights for expatriates;
• Wedding abroad;
• Issuance of visas;
• Assistance in cases of emergency.

Everyone applying for a passport or national ID-card must provide proof of identity. The applicant must also provide proof of Swedish citizenship. A newborn/child must be registered and have a Swedish ID-number before they can have a passport. Applicants are advised to consult the staff of the passport authority prior to submitting their application.

As of July 2nd 2007 Sweden accepts the Romanian ID card as a valid travel document. Therefore, as of this date Romanian citizens can enter Sweden based on their national ID cards or their valid passports. Romanian citizens do not need a visa.
