The British Embassy in Stockholm

The British Embassy represents the United Kingdom and its interest in Sweden.  The role of the Embassy is primarily to strengthen the longstanding and close UK/Sweden bilateral relationship across all areas of mutual interest, including spearheading a mutually beneficial security, defence and law enforcement partnership with Sweden to protect both countries’ populations and interests from international threats and transnational challenges, including terrorism, illegal immigration, serious and organised crime and illicit finance. Other core focus areas include increasing trade and investment between the UK and Sweden, a science partnership that identifies solutions to global challenges, strong climate advocacy to tackle long-term global climate and environmental challenges, and championing with Sweden international efforts to promote shared values and safeguard democracy, human rights, gender equality and the rule of law.
