南非(South Africa) 前往 瑞典(Sweden) 签证要求

South African ordinary passport holders need a Schengen short-stay (Type C) visa to visit Sweden for tourism. There is no visa-free, visa-on-arrival or eVisa option, and ETIAS does not apply to South Africans because it is only for visa-exempt nationals. Sweden is part of the Schengen Area, and South Africa is on the list of nationalities that require an entry (Schengen Type C) visa to enter. A South African ordinary passport holder must therefore obtain a Schengen visa before traveling for tourism. The visa allows a stay of up to 90 days within any rolling 180-day period across the entire Schengen Area. Applications are lodged through VFS Global on behalf of the Embassy of Sweden in South Africa; if Sweden is the main or only destination, you apply to Sweden. The standard adult fee is EUR 90 (paid in ZAR equivalent), plus a VFS Global service charge. Standard processing is about 15 calendar days from a complete submission, though it can take longer in peak season, and biometrics (fingerprints and photo) are collected. Applicants must show proof of accommodation, a confirmed return ticket, travel medical insurance covering at least EUR 30,000 valid in all Schengen states, and sufficient funds of about SEK 450 per day of the visit. Note that ETIAS, expected to launch in Q4 2026, does NOT apply to South African passport holders because it only covers visa-exempt nationalities; South Africans continue using the regular Schengen visa process. Conclusion: visa-required.
