What Regulations Are There on Importing Printers and Ink to Sweden?

  • The official model for written declarations to customs is the Single Administrative Document (SAD). The SAD describes goods and their movement around the world and is essential for trade outside the EU or trade of non-EU goods.
  • Goods brought into the EU customs territory are, from the time of their entry, subject to customs supervision until customs formalities are completed.  Goods are covered by a Summary Declaration, which is filed once the items have been presented to customs officials.
  • Sweden applies the EU customs laws and coherent regulations, as well as common customs tariffs from the United States and other non-EU countries. When products enter the EU, they need to be declared to customs according to their classification in the Combined Nomenclature (CN).
  • Most industrial products imported to Sweden are subject to customs duty varying from zero percent to 15 percent. Duty rates for foodstuffs can be higher, as they are based on the weight of the commodity.  The value for customs purposes is directly based on the value of transaction: product price, transportation, and insurance.
  • The Prior Informed Consent Regulation administers the import and export of certain hazardous chemicals and places obligations on companies who wish to export.
  • Because inks contain hazardous chemicals, it is important to follow Sweden’s import regulations.

  2. High Product Cost - Given the domestic competition in Sweden, printers and the continuous ink supply are more expensive to buy domestically than on the world market.
  3. Product Quality - While most international suppliers have a good brand reputation and quality, some smaller domestic manufacturers in Sweden can have variant product quality.
