Destination
Sweden
Sweden: Island capital, Nordic design, calm.
About Sweden
Stockholm, built across 14 islands, pairs a beautifully preserved medieval old town with a design-forward, modern capital. Beyond the city, Sweden's archipelago, forests, and lakes offer an easy, uncrowded contrast, making it a strong fit alongside Denmark or Norway on a wider Nordic itinerary.

10-year historical average — not a live forecast
Sweden has a temperate climate with mild summers and cold, snowy winters, colder further north. Summer (June to August) has the longest daylight hours and mildest weather for sightseeing. Best time to visit: June to August, for the longest daylight hours and mildest weather.
Stockholm's metro (famous for its art-decorated stations), buses, and ferries cover the city and archipelago efficiently. Trains connect Stockholm to Gothenburg and onward into Denmark and Norway.
Excellent 4G/5G coverage nationwide. Free Wi-Fi is standard in hotels, cafes, and most public spaces.
Sweden uses the Swedish Krona, not the Euro. Sweden is one of the most cashless societies in the world; cards and mobile payments are used almost everywhere, and some vendors don't accept cash at all.
Sweden is known for Nordic design goods, glassware from the Kingdom of Crystal region, and Dalarna wooden horses. Most shops close early on Sundays.
Sweden applies a standard VAT rate of 25% on most goods. Non-EU visitors can claim a refund on purchases over 200 SEK from a single store, processed at the airport on departure.

Visa Requirement
As a Schengen Area member, Sweden is covered by the same Schengen short-stay (Type C) visa used across all member states. Citizens of the EU, EEA, and visa-exempt countries such as the US, UK, Canada, and Australia do not need a visa for tourist stays of up to 90 days.
However, Indian passport holders must apply for a Schengen Visa before travelling. If Sweden is the main destination or first point of entry on a multi-country trip, the application should be submitted through Sweden's consulate or an authorised visa centre.
