Swedish population extract
A foreign office asked for a Swedish personbevis and a stamp. Skatteverket prints the extract. We add an authorised translation and place the apostille on the original, in one case.
The extract
A wedding office, a bank or a civil registry almost always wants the extract that lists your spouse, children and parents. A short address slip, or a screenshot from Mina sidor, is rarely the paper they agree to stamp.
Translation
A translator authorised by Kammarkollegiet puts the extract into the language that office uses. A standard document starts at 1 495 kr. The language follows the country, not a guess.
Apostille
A notary public places the apostille on the Skatteverket extract. The stamp says the document is genuine. It does not translate a single line. That is why the two jobs belong in the same case. Apostille starts at 1 595 kr.
Some offices want the translation alone. Some want only the stamp. When they want both, the package is the short way through.

Translation and apostille, together Best value
We take the original once. The translation and the apostille run side by side, and the papers come back ready to file.

A personbevis is the Swedish population extract. Skatteverket prints who you are, where you are registered, and, on the fuller version, who you are related to. A passport proves identity. This paper proves the civil record.
When an office asks you to translate a personbevis, they almost always mean the extract with relations. Skatteverket will also sell a short slip that only shows your name and address. That is the wrong one for a wedding, a residence file or a bank. Order the extract that lists your spouse, children and parents.
It is not a marriage certificate. The marriage certificate comes from the person who married you. This page is the population extract.
Order the paper original. An apostille is placed on a document that already carries a signature and a stamp, not on a PDF you printed at home.
From Skatteverket, with the relations the recipient named. If their letter is vague, send it to us before you pay for the wrong version.
We name the language, and we say whether that country takes an apostille or wants the embassy route.
The apostille lands on the Swedish extract. The translation is done by a translator authorised by Kammarkollegiet. Both come back to you.
A private power of attorney usually has to be signed in front of a notary before it can carry an apostille. A personbevis from Skatteverket is already an official extract, so the apostille goes straight onto it. If a country still wants a separate certification, we say so before anything starts.
The country decides between an apostille and a route through the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs and that country’s embassy. Pick the recipient and you land on the right package.

See all 72 countries →It is the extract from the Swedish population register, printed by Skatteverket. The fuller version shows your civil status and your family relations. Foreign offices ask for it when a passport is not enough to prove who you are registered with.
Not if they want an apostille. The stamp is placed on the original extract from Skatteverket. A printout of a screen is a copy, and most offices will not take that copy in place of the original.
The recipient sets the date. Many offices want an extract no more than a couple of months old, often about three. We will not invent a deadline for a country you have not named. Send their requirement and we will say whether the date still holds.
Usually no. Skatteverket issued the extract, so a notary public can apostille it directly. A private power of attorney is a different document and is notarised first.
Yes. English is the usual language for the USA, the United Kingdom, and offices that ask for English. The translator is authorised by Kammarkollegiet. The country you pick below names the language for that case.
Authorised translation starts at 1 495 kr. Apostille starts at 1 595 kr. The package with both starts at 2 395 kr. Countries without apostille, such as Thailand, China and the United Arab Emirates, go through the embassy. That package starts at 3 495 kr.
Yes. The apostille stays on the extract, and the extract comes back with the translation.
Send the letter from the office, the bank or the wedding registrar. We will say which Skatteverket version to order, and whether that country wants an apostille or the embassy, before you buy the wrong paper.
