Sweden Visa Guide for U.S. Citizens | Wowtrips4u

Visa is not required for stays up to 90 days within a 180-day period.

Sweden welcomes the U.S. traveler with open arms. Whether your trip is sightseeing in Stockholm, for a business meeting in Gothenburg, or a short passage on your way to another European country, U.S. passport holders can enter Sweden and the EU without a visa for tourism purposes, business purposes, or crossing the European border as transit for up to 90 days under the Schengen rules.

Starting soon, US citizens will require ETIAS authorisation to travel to Sweden; until then, entry is also free.

At Wowtrips4u, we provide clear guidance on Sweden travel rules, visa-free entry, Sweden visa requirements for U.S. citizens, business trips, work visas, transit rules, ETIAS, and everything you need for a seamless journey
