How to search the Bolagsverket
- 1
Använd sökfunktionen 'Sök företagsfakta'
Visit Bolagsverket's 'Sök företagsfakta' portal. You can search for a company by name or by its 10-digit organisationsnummer.
- 2
Identifiera organisationsnummer
The unique ID (e.g., 556000-0000) is the primary key for all Swedish business data. It is essential for distinguishing between companies with similar names.
- 3
Beställ registreringsbevis eller årsredovisning
Select the specific entity. While basic status is visible, full registration certificates (registreringsbevis) and annual reports (årsredovisning) must be purchased and downloaded as PDFs.
Who uses this data
Nordic KYC and AML compliance teams, credit analysts assessing Swedish SMEs, and sales operations teams targeting the Stockholm tech ecosystem and traditional industrial sectors. It is also a critical source for auditing beneficial ownership (verklig huvudman) information.
Access, fees & notes
Sweden maintains high transparency. Basic registry lookups are easy, but historical data and official PDF documents require small processing fees. Many third-party providers (e.g., AllaBolag) offer simplified views of this data, though Bolagsverket remains the legal source of truth.
Cost & access
Basic entity status and ID search are free. Official certificates, articles of association, and annual reports usually cost between 40 SEK and 150 SEK per document.

Common mistakes to avoid
✗ Confusing the organisationsnummer with the VAT number.
✓ The VAT number starts with SE and ends with 01, but the middle 10 digits are the organisationsnummer.
✗ Relying on third-party aggregators for official legal standing.
✓ Use Bolagsverket's official 'Sök företagsfakta' for the most up-to-date board member and bankruptcy status.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an AB in Sweden?▾
AB (Aktiebolag) is the Swedish limited company, equivalent to a Ltd or GmbH. A private AB requires SEK 25,000 minimum share capital. A public AB (Publikt AB) requires SEK 500,000. AB is the most common entity type for Swedish businesses.
What is an organisationsnummer?▾
The organisationsnummer is a 10-digit identification number (XXXXXX-XXXX) assigned to all Swedish legal entities. For companies, it starts with the digits 55 or 56. It's used for all government, tax, and business interactions.
How transparent is Swedish company data?▾
Sweden has a strong tradition of transparency (offentlighetsprincipen). Annual reports, board details, and company data are publicly accessible. Swedish tax records, including individual income, are also public — one of the most transparent systems in the world.
How do I search Bolagsverket?▾
Basic searches can be done through allabolag.se or the Bolagsverket website. Detailed company extracts cost SEK 100–200. The Swedish Companies Registration Office also offers an API for programmatic access.
How do I search for a company in Sweden by name?▾
Type the company name into the search box above. Results come from the Bolagsverket and show the registered name, Org.nr number, status and registered address. Partial names work — searching "acme" returns every registered entity whose name starts with it.
Is the Sweden company register free to search?▾
Yes. Searching by company name or Org.nr number is free here and on the official Sweden register — no account or payment is required for a basic lookup. Certified extracts and filed documents may carry a fee on the official register.
Can I search Sweden companies by registration number?▾
Yes. Enter the Org.nr number instead of the name and the lookup resolves it directly to the matching record, which is the fastest way to confirm an identifier printed on an invoice or contract.
How do I check whether a company is registered in Sweden?▾
Search the name or Org.nr number above. If the business is on the Bolagsverket, the record appears with its registered name and identifier. If nothing is returned, the name as spelled is not on the register — try a partial name or the number printed on the invoice or contract before concluding the business is unregistered.
How can I tell if a Sweden company is still active?▾
Each record carries the status the Bolagsverket publishes for that entity. Registration status is a factual register field, not a judgement about the business — for ongoing certainty you can watch a record and be emailed when its registered details change.
How do I find a company's Org.nr number?▾
Search the company name above. Each result shows its Org.nr number alongside the registered name, status and address, sourced from the Bolagsverket.
