Walidator numeru EORI w Szwecji (Szwedzka Administracja Celna Tullverket)
Validate Swedish Economic Operators Registration and Identification (EORI) numbers directly against official customs registries. Verify whether a Swedish SE EORI number is valid and active for import, export, TDS declarations, Port of Gothenburg container shipping, Stockholm Arlanda air freight, and Nordic transit compliance.
What is a Swedish EORI number (SE) and who needs one?
A Swedish EORI number (Economic Operators Registration and Identification) is a unique customs identifier assigned by Tullverket (the Swedish Customs Authority) to businesses and individuals conducting customs-related commercial activities in Sweden and across the European Union.
Under Article 9 of the Union Customs Code (UCC), holding an active SE EORI number is mandatory for customs clearance when importing goods from or exporting goods to non-EU nations (such as Norway, the UK, the United States, or China). In Sweden, this is vital for containerized freight arriving at the Port of Gothenburg (Göteborgs Hamn) — the largest container terminal in Scandinavia — RoRo ferry shipments through Trelleborg and Helsingborg, air cargo at Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN), and overland trade across the Öresund Bridge. Without an active EORI, declarations cannot be lodged in Tullverket’s TDS or NCTS P5 systems.
Swedish EORI vs. Swedish VAT (Moms) vs. Organisationsnummer
Businesses operating in Sweden often navigate three interconnected identifiers, each administered by different agencies for distinct regulatory purposes:
Swedish Moms / VAT Number (Skatteverket / VIES)
Administered by Skatteverket (Swedish Tax Agency) for domestic taxation and intra-EU trade. Format: SE + 10-digit organisationsnummer + 01 (12 digits, e.g. SE556012345601). VAT registration alone does not authorize clearance of non-EU imports or exports.
Swedish EORI Number (Tullverket / EU EOS)
Assigned and managed exclusively by Tullverket for customs operations with third countries. Format: SE + 10-digit organisationsnummer (without the trailing "01", e.g. SE5560123456). Must be actively registered in the EU EOS system to clear customs declarations.
Swedish companies can apply for an EORI number digitally via Tullverket's e-services (tullverket.se) using BankID. Foreign entities not established in the EU must register in the first EU Member State where they conduct customs activities.
Strategic Nordic Gateways and Non-EU Customs Border with Norway
Sweden shares the longest external EU land border with Norway (a non-EU EEA partner), requiring streamlined customs procedures. With major trade routes via the Svinesund crossing, the Port of Gothenburg, and Baltic maritime corridors, real-time EORI verification is crucial to prevent border bottlenecks, customs delays, and costly logistical hold-ups.
Frequently Asked Questions about Swedish EORI Numbers
What is the format of a Swedish EORI number?
A Swedish EORI number begins with the country prefix SE followed by a 10-digit number based on the Swedish company registration number (organisationsnummer) or personal identity number (personnummer), for example: SE5560123456.
What is the difference between a Swedish VAT number and EORI number?
A Swedish VAT number (Momsnummer) contains 12 digits ending with 01 (e.g. SE556012345601) and is registered with Skatteverket for VAT purposes. A Swedish EORI number consists of SE followed by the 10-digit organisationsnummer without the "01" suffix (e.g. SE5560123456) and is managed by Tullverket for customs.
Can I validate a Swedish EORI number by entering only digits?
Yes. Our validator automatically detects 10-digit Swedish company registration numbers and prepends the SE country code to query the official customs database.
