Currency Exchange of Swedish Banknotes Abroad

The Swedish central bank, Riksbanken, has recently received information suggesting difficulties in exchanging Swedish banknotes abroad. It is important to clarify that Riksbanken has not made any decisions regarding this matter.

The handling of Swedish currency outside of Sweden is primarily managed by foreign exchange companies, international banks, cash processing companies, and to some extent, Swedish banks. Riksbanken is not directly involved in these operations.

Riksbanken is currently working to gather more information about this issue. For individuals planning to travel abroad, alternative options to exchange banknotes overseas include exchanging them in Sweden or utilizing other payment methods such as internationally accepted cards.
