What is samordningsnummer?
A "samordningsnummer" is a coordination number assigned to individuals who are not eligible for a Swedish personal identity number (personnummer) but still require identification for certain purposes.
It is issued by the Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket) and is primarily used for coordination and administration in various systems and processes.
The samordningsnummer allows individuals to engage in limited activities such as opening a bank account, accessing healthcare services, and participating in the labour market.
It is typically provided to individuals who are residing in Sweden temporarily or who do not meet the criteria for a personnummer.
