Make sure to read the section about what to do upon arrival. If you’ve been here for more than a year, you need to be registered in the population register (folkbokförd) to be entitled to medical care under the same terms as others living in Sweden.
If there is an emergency and you need immediate assistance, call 112.
You are free to choose which primary care centre you want to be listed at, but you will automatically be listed at the one nearest to your home if you don’t change it. Call 019 – 602 16 00 if you’re unsure which centre is closest.
You can get 24-hour medical advice by calling 1177 (no area code). Call this number if you need medical care in the evening and on weekends or if it can’t wait until the next day.
