Chamber of Commerce Certificates and Visa Stamps

Some countries require an International Import Certificate (IC) before granting export. Furthermore, some of these countries may also require a Delivery Verification Certificate (DVC) to confirm that the goods have actually been delivered to the intended destination country.

With an IC, the importer commits to importing goods into Sweden, and with a DVC, it is certified that the goods have indeed arrived here.

You can apply for IC and DVC through the provided link.

In cases where a specific knowledge or skill is required to practice a profession in a member state and someone has acquired this knowledge or skill in another member state, a so-called professional qualification certificate can be issued, certifying the knowledge or skill. To issue this certificate, we will require various documents from you, depending on what needs to be certified:

1. A CV with a permanent address and other contact details (the information in the CV needs to be verified).
2. Documents verifying your date of birth, place of birth, name, and nationality.
3. Proof of relevant educational qualifications (e.g., degree certificates or similar documents).
4. Extracts from authorities like the Swedish Tax Agency/Companies Registration Office if it’s a matter of your own business being certified.
5. Work certificates from any employers to certify employment and practice in a profession.

To apply, please send an email with the required documents to trade@stockholmshandelskammare.se and specify that you need a “professional qualification certificate” If you have any questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
