Swedish passport

The Swedish passports issued since 1 October 2005 are burgundy, with the words "EUROPEISKA UNIONEN" (EUROPEAN UNION), "SVERIGE" (SWEDEN) and "PASS" (PASSPORT) inscribed at the top of the front cover, and the Swedish lesser coat of arms emblazoned on the bottom of the front cover.The name in the non-machine-readable zone is spelled as in the national population register, i.e. transliterated to Latin script if required.Sweden started capturing and storing fingerprint data for new passport applications on 28 June 2009, as required by the European Union.The data page/information page is printed in Swedish and English, with translation in other official languages of the European Union elsewhere in the document.It can also be used instead of a Swedish passport for entering Dominica (de facto), French overseas territories, Georgia, Montserrat (if in transit to a third country for max 14 days) and on package holidays to Tunisia.Through bilateral agreements freedom of movement is extended to Switzerland,[18] and all EU and EFTA nationals are not only visa-exempt but are legally entitled to enter and reside in each other's countries.Recorded instances included asylum seekers, people using the forged passports for criminal or any combination of the two.
