    How do I look up a company by its registration number in Sweden?

    Use the exact Org.nr with its issuing jurisdiction or register on Bolagsverket. Compare the returned legal name and identifier. A valid-looking number does not guarantee a result: coverage, formatting, access and source availability affect the lookup.

    Step-by-step

    1. 1

      Find the Org.nr on the paperwork

      The Org.nr normally appears on invoices, contracts, the website footer or official correspondence. It is the number counterparties are required to quote.

    2. 2

      Search the Org.nr

      Preserve leading zeros, letters, court and jurisdiction information. Follow the source's documented format rather than removing meaningful parts to force a match.

    3. 3

      Confirm the returned entity

      Check the legal name on the returned record matches the name on your paperwork. A mismatch between quoted number and quoted name is a serious warning sign.

    4. 4

      Verify at Bolagsverket

      For anything contractual, confirm the number against the primary source at https://www.bolagsverket.se.

    Sweden: choosing and checking the right record

    Choose the correct source
    Use Bolagsverket's Sök företagsinformation service. It replaced Näringslivsregistret, which closed in September 2025. Follow the current official service page rather than an old bookmarked search screen; check access for the document you need.
    Confirm the entity
    Start with the organisationsnummer and legal name. Keep the number separate from an SE-prefixed VAT identifier. Confirm whether the record concerns a company, association or another organisation before interpreting officer roles.

    Frequently asked questions

    What is a Org.nr in Sweden?

    It is the identifier Bolagsverket assigns to a registered entity. It stays with the entity even if the trading name changes, which makes it the reliable way to track a company over time.

    Is a Org.nr lookup free?

    LemReveal's basic lookup is free where supported. Check Bolagsverket's official access rules for the record or document required.

    What if the Org.nr returns no result?

    Check the format, issuing jurisdiction, coverage and source availability. Preserve meaningful prefixes and leading zeros. An unavailable source is not a confirmed absence; ask the counterparty to clarify the identifier.

    Should I use the Org.nr or the company name?

    The Org.nr. Names are duplicated across entities within a group; the number is unique to one entity.

    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.
