Sweden passport photo: the police take it when you apply

For a Swedish passport or national ID card the police take your photo at the passport office. You do not bring your own, so a photo service cannot help.

The police take the photo

For a Swedish passport or national ID card you apply in person at a police passport office. The case officer takes your photo and two fingerprints there, according to polisen.se. You do not bring a photo of your own.

That also means there is no official specification for a photo you supply. Foto2Pass cannot help with this one, and we do not sell a Swedish passport or ID card photo.

What to do

  • Visit a police passport office; polisen.se explains how to book.
  • Your photo is taken on the spot, so you do not need one beforehand.
