  Do not bring passport photos. As part of new procedures introduced in 2007, all applicants are digitally photographed on site at the time of the application.

The new passport is normally ready 1-2 weeks from the time of application. It may not be delivered by mail, and must be picked up in person by a legal guardian or by the applicant, if she or he is 15 or older.   

The new passport may be picked up at any Swedish consulate in the United States. 

For pick-up of the new passport at a consular location other than the one at which the application was submitted, there is a shipping fee of $10 (payable at time of application) and an additional processing fee of $20 (payable at pickup).
