Competent Swedish Authority to issue Apostille

Competent Swedish Authority to issue Apostille according to Hague convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalisation for Foreign Public Documents (Art. 6)

Designated Competent Authority(ies):

Sweden has decentralised the issuance of Apostilles and designated all notaries public as Competent Authorities according to the Convention. Notaries public are appointed by the 21 local County Administrative Board (Länsstyrelsen).

There is no centralised register of all notaries public. However, relevant County Administrative Board list appointed notaries public in respective county on its official website.

For Chinese authorises, the Embassy of Sweden in Beijing and Consulate General in Shanghai have listed the County Administrative Boards website where Chinese authorities could verify the name of notarius publicus who has issued the Apostille (in Swedish - Förteckning/Lista Notarius Publicus).

The Embassy and Consulate General refrain from additional certification according to the Hague Convention on Abolishing the Requirement of Legalisation for Foreign Public Documents.
