Swedish Customs: Sailing Pleasure Boats across Sweden’s Border

If you sail into Sweden from a country outside the EU, you can temporarily have your boat in Sweden for 18 months without paying any charges.

If you bring your pleasure boat to Sweden from a country outside the EU (e.g. Norway), you do not need to give notification to Swedish Customs. This applies: while you yourself remain in Sweden; and, for no more than 18 months. As soon as you leave Sweden, you must sail the boat back. If you choose to leave the boat in Sweden, you must give Swedish Customs notification of this and submit an import notification.

EU regulations apply concerning temporary importation. See Noonsite/EU/ VAT page for more information.

You may have to give notification to Swedish Customs if you are carrying certain goods when you sail a pleasure boat across Sweden’s border. The rules vary depending on where you are coming from and what goods you are carrying on the boat. Goods subject to special rules.

If visiting Göta Ålv or going through the Göta Canal, report to the Customs office before entering. Yachts may be intercepted by Customs in the Customs area for inspection.

Other Items:

  • Firearms must be declared on arrival and may be retained until departure.
  • Medicines should be declared on arrival and be accompanied by a prescription.
  • Alcohol can not be brought freely into Swedne. If arriving from within the EU, a reasonable amount of alcohol and tobacco for personal use is permitted duty-free. See rules here.
