Produktbeschreibung

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! There are several identity documents used in Sweden. None are compulsory. Certified identification cards are issued by the tax agency. The police issues passports and national identity cards, but only for Swedish citizens. A Swedish driver's license, issued by the transport agency, is also accepted as an identity document. Banks sometimes issue identity cards for established customers or their children, but this is less often done the latest years. Identity documents are needed in Sweden in certain commonly occurring situations, e.g. purchases using debit- or credit cards when not using a PIN, or picking up a package at the postal service representatives, or for age checking when purchasing alcoholic beverages, or to get medical care and medicines. A valid Swedish identity document is also required for opening a bank account or other situations where the use of Swedish personal identity number is required. In Sweden, no law has been introduced about compulsory identity documents. However for certain situations, the law says that safe identification is needed, without saying how it should done.
