Particularities for shipments to Sweden
Sweden has been a member of the European Union since 1995, which means free movement of goods can take place. This means that you can ship goods to Sweden without customs issues or export documents.
However, the shipment of dangerous goods is not possible, because on the route the ferry is used as a means of transport.
Sweden as an economic area
The Swedish economy is very much characterized by international trade, which also benefits the logistics industry.
