About the Embassy
U.S. Mission to Sweden
The American Embassy in Stockholm assists in the promotion of strong bi-lateral ties between the United States and Sweden and plays an active role in public diplomacy, business services, and traditional diplomatic relations. The mission devotes a large proportion of time to consular matters such as the issuance of visas for travel to the U.S. and services for American citizens. As Sweden and the U.S. are important trading partners, considerable effort is also devoted to the promotion of close business and commercial ties.
The interests of the United States and Sweden converge and correspond in many areas. In addition to those cited above, the American Embassy directs its energies to building close ties in economic, commercial, and regional relations. In areas as diverse as the World Trade Organization and the Partnership for Peace there has been a convergence of interest. Sweden's accession to the European Union in January, 1995 created a new and important forum for cooperation. Support for independence in the Baltics, peace in the Balkans, and active participation in international organizations such as the OSCE and the UN are also areas of common interest.
