How can i report crime ?
To report a crime in Sweden, contact the police directly via phone or their website.
To report a crime in Sweden, the first step depends on the urgency of the situation. For crimes in progress or if you require immediate assistance due to injury, always call the emergency number 112. This will dispatch police to your location.
For non-urgent crimes or to provide tips, you should primarily use the police's e-services available on polisen.se. Alternatively, you can call the non-emergency police number 114 14 or visit your nearest police station to make a report in person. When reporting, provide your name, personal identification number, details of the incident, and the date and time it occurred. Be as thorough as possible in your description.
Specific types of crimes, like economic crimes, might have alternative reporting channels. For example, suspected economic crimes can be reported to the Ekobrottsmyndigheten (National Economic Crime Authority) using their online form or by mail. You can also make a report to the Brottsoffermyndigheten (Swedish Crime Victim Authority) for assistance with compensation and support.
Remember to be as detailed as possible when reporting your crime to assist in the investigation. If you are seeking compensation, you should mention it during your report.
