🇸🇿 Eswatini visa requirements for Swedish citizens

Entry rules for Sweden passport holders

Holders of a valid passport from Sweden can travel to Eswatini for tourism or short business trips without applying for a visa, for stays of up to 30 days. You'll typically just need a passport valid for at least six months beyond your arrival date, and you may be asked to show proof of onward travel or sufficient funds at the border.

The 30-day limit applies to the visit itself — if you plan to stay longer, work, or study in Eswatini, you'll need to apply for the appropriate visa or permit before traveling.

Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Eswatini immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.

How this compares

The Swedish passport ranks #4 worldwide, opening 165 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (127 visa-free, 30 with a visa on arrival and 8 with an eTA). Eswatini is one of them.

This is not reciprocal — traveling the other way, Swazi citizens need to arrange entry to Sweden in advance (visa required).

Southern Africa is fully open to Swedish travelers — all 6 destinations in the region can be entered without arranging a visa first.
