A 30-minute call from the US at Tele2's 25 kr per minute costs 750.99 kr with the opening fee. On 002call it is about $0.60.

Numbers that start with 020 or 0900

020 numbers are free inside Sweden and often can't be reached from abroad. Look for a regular number on the organisation's website for callers overseas.

Avoid 0900 numbers

Numbers that begin with 0900, 0939 or 0944 are premium-rate lines with a higher charge on top of the normal rate. Check the price before you call one.

When to call

Sweden has one time zone, Central European Time. The cards below show your time and the time in Stockholm.

Clocks go back on 25 October 2026 and forward on 28 March 2027, on the same dates as the rest of the EU, so the time difference can shift by an hour for a few weeks if your country changes on other dates.

Call quality

A browser call needs a steady connection more than a fast one, using roughly half a megabyte to one megabyte of data per minute (an estimate).

  • Use Wi-Fi or a good mobile signal.
  • Use headphones to avoid echo.
  • Switch off a VPN if the audio is choppy or one-way.
  • Check the microphone permission if the other person can't hear you.
