Common questions concerning population registration certificates
Why have I not received the population registration certificate I ordered?
When you order a population registration certificate it will be sent to the address where you are registered as living. You can log in to Mina sidor (in Swedish) to check your registered address.
If you do not live at that address or if you do not have a registered address you must report a change of address via the e-service Flyttanmälan (in Swedish).
If you want to have your post delivered to another adress (for at least six months) you can report a special postal address (särskild postadress).
If you have moved from Sweden you must report an address abroad. Fill in the form New address (Ny adress/röstlängd för utvandrad, Anmälan - SKV 7842).
Can I order a population registration certificate for my child in the e-service?
In our e-service you can only order a population registration certificate for yourself. To order a certificate for your child, you can either use our service Find and receive the correct population registration certificate or call us. The certificate will be sent to you by post.
When do I need a population registration certificate?
You only need to order a population registration certificate when someone requests a population registration certificate from you.
The Swedish Tax Agency shares the information concerning you in the population register with other authorities and private companies, for example banks. This means that you do not need to personally notify these bodies that you have moved or changed name. The notification is instead sent automatically.
