📣 Conseils aux voyageurs

Sweden is the largest Nordic country by area and population, featuring deep forests, numerous lakes, and a rich history ranging from the Viking Age to the 17th-century Swedish Empire. It is known for its pop music scene, the Nobel Prize, and over 270,000 islands accessible via 'right to roam' laws.

• Expect a secular atmosphere with high levels of tolerance for diversity.
• Be punctual; arrive exactly at the scheduled time for meetings or meals.
• Remove your shoes when entering most private homes.
• Use numbered queue slips (kölapp) when waiting in lines.
• Respect personal space and avoid approaching celebrities in public.
• Avoid discussing personal finances, as money is a taboo topic.
• Swedes value personal space and privacy; service staff may be less attentive to allow for this. Public nudity is generally not accepted except at designated beaches. It is customary to remove shoes indoors unless hosting a formal event. Punctuality is essential, as there is no 'fashionably late' culture. Social interactions are often based on consensus-building, and money is considered a taboo topic of conversation.
