Spain to Sweden visa requirements

No. As an EU citizen, a Spanish passport holder needs no visa to visit Sweden and is not subject to the Schengen 90/180-day cap. You may enter with a valid Spanish passport or national ID card. Spain and Sweden are both members of the European Union and the Schengen Area, so Spanish citizens enjoy full EU freedom of movement when traveling to Sweden. No visa, eVisa, or travel authorization is required for tourism or any short visit. Importantly, the Schengen 90-days-in-180 short-stay limit that applies to non-EU visitors does NOT apply to EU nationals: a Spanish citizen has the right to travel, stay, work, and reside in Sweden without a time limit, with a simple registration only required if the actual residence exceeds three months. ETIAS, the upcoming travel authorization expected to launch in Q4 2026, applies only to visa-exempt non-EU nationals and will NOT apply to Spanish (EU) citizens. A Spanish traveler may enter Sweden using either a valid Spanish passport or a valid Spanish national identity card (DNI). Although passport/ID checks are normally absent at internal Schengen borders, carrying a valid travel document is required and may be requested during reintroduced temporary border controls or identity checks.
