EU regulations

As a member of the EU, Sweden participates in EU legislative work together with the other Member States. EU collaboration involves certain areas of policy, such as trade policy, in addition to rules on the free mobility of goods and services.

Some EU rules take the form of regulations that apply to the undertakings, authorities and citizens of all Member States with immediate effect. Others are directives that have to be incorporated into Swedish legislation.
