Förtullning

Customs clearance (förtullning) is the process when goods are declared, taxed and approved to pass the border. The person who brings goods in or out provides information to the Swedish Customs (Tullverket), which checks and decides whether the goods may pass. Because Sweden is a member of the EU, customs clearance applies primarily to countries outside the EU, while trade within the EU is generally freer.
