Sweden is open and actively visited by leisure tourists right now. The main traveler concerns are terrorism, some gang-related violence in major cities, and weather-related hazards in northern areas, but there is no evidence of armed conflict or a tourist shutdown. Payment systems are functioning normally, though authorities are preparing backup offline card-payment options for resilience.
