Villkorlig frigivning
Conditional release (villkorlig frigivning) is the main rule that the convicted person is released early and serves the rest of the sentence out in society under conditions. For sentences under six years it happens after two thirds of the sentence time, but since 2026 a person sentenced to six years or more is released only after three quarters. If the conditions are broken during the probation period, which is now at least two years, the conditional release can be postponed.
