    How do I find a company's registration number in Sweden?

    Search the company's name on Bolagsverket at https://www.bolagsverket.se. The result page shows its registration number — the same identifier that appears on invoices, contracts, and government filings.

    Step-by-step

    1. 1

      Open Bolagsverket

      Navigate to https://www.bolagsverket.se.

      https://www.bolagsverket.se
    2. 2

      Search by company name

      Type the exact trading or legal name. Partial matches usually work; add the city if the name is common.

    3. 3

      Copy the registration number

      The registration number is displayed at the top of the entity profile. It is the authoritative ID for cross-referencing.

    4. 4

      Confirm it's the right entity

      Check the registered address and incorporation date to be sure you have the correct legal entity, especially for groups with similarly named subsidiaries.

    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.

    Is the Sweden company register free to search?

    Where do I find a Sweden company's registration number?

    Every registered Sweden entity has a unique registration number issued at incorporation. It appears on invoices, contracts, the company's website footer (often in a "legal" section), and prominently on its Bolagsverket record.

    Is a Sweden registration number the same as a VAT number?

    No. The registration number is the identifier issued by the Bolagsverket when the company was formed. The VAT number is a separate tax identifier issued (only if the company is VAT-registered) by the national tax authority. Many small companies have a registration number but no VAT number.
