EORI application part 2
Enter mandatory information.
If the applicant is a Swedish business or a person living permanently in Sweden, information on name and address has been retrieved. Furthermore, a check has been made whether the business is registered for VAT in Sweden under the registration number provided. If a Swedish business is so new that the name cannot be retrieved automatically, you will have to type in the business name, address and VAT number (if you have one). If so, you also have to attach a certificate of registration.
Name
The maximum length of this field is 70 characters.
Enter the official name of the business, as presented in the company registration records. If the name includes more than 70 characters, you will have to abbreviate it. For example, always use the abbreviations AB for Aktiebolag and Ltd for Limited. If you are a private individual, enter you surname followed by a comma and then your first name. Sole traders enter the owner’s surname followed by a comma and the first name.
VAT number
The system has also checked whether the business is VAT registered in Sweden under the corporate identification number provided, and the result of that check is displayed as VAT number.
Should the business be VAT registered in another EU country as well, click Add a VAT number, select country code in the drop-down list and type the rest of the VAT number.
Address
Enter the address where the business is established. As a private individual you enter the address where you are registered. Individuals with Swedish co-ordination numbers enter the address where they are registered, i.e. not the temporary Swedish address. The maximum number of characters you can use is 70.
Postal address
The default country code is the country where you have declared that the business is established. Enter postcode and city. The total maximum number of characters is 35.
Swedish branch exists
If the business has a Swedish branch office, you can enter the corporate identification number of the branch office here. The identification number of a branch office always starts with the digits 5164. This way we can link the branch office to the parent company in the records, and any mail from Swedish Customs will be addressed to the branch office. The branch office cannot get an EORI number of its own, since Swedish law does not define a branch office of a foreign company as a separate legal entity. Consequently, the branch office should use the same EORI number as the parent company.
Telephone number
Enter the full telephone number starting with + and country code but omitting the initial digit
0 of the area code. Swedish telephone numbers start with +46.
Mobile number
Enter your full mobile number starting with + and country code but omitting the initial digit 0 of the telephone number. Swedish telephone numbers start with +46.
Fax number
Enter your full fax number, if you have one, starting with + and country code but omitting the initial digit 0 of the area code. Swedish numbers start with +46.
Contact person
Enter the name of the contact person at the business covered by the application.
Enter the email address of the contact person or to the business mentioned above. The EORI number will be sent to this email address.
Publication
The agreement to publication regards the European Commission website that provides access to information on companies/individuals with valid EORI numbers. You enter an EORI number and retrieve information on the name and address of the company/individual.
You do not have to agree to this publication of your data. If you do not agree to the publication the only information retrieved is whether the EORI number is valid or not. No information on name or address will be displayed.
Add attachment
Non-Swedish businesses always have to enclose a business registration certificate. People living outside the EU always have to enclose a copy of a valid passport. You can attach up to 5 files, and the total maximum size for the attachments is 8 MB.
