Swedish Mobile Number Format and Carrier Prefix Ranges
Swedish mobile numbers are 9 digits after the country code (+46), always starting with 7. In local format, numbers are written with a leading 0 — for example, 070-XXX XXXX. In international format, the leading 0 is dropped: +46 70 XXX XXXX. Sweden has among the highest smartphone penetration rates in Europe, with three national mobile carriers sharing the 07X prefix range.
- Telia — prefixes 070 and 073 (e.g. +46 70 XXX XXXX). Telia is Sweden's largest mobile carrier, majority state-owned through the Swedish government. Telia operates the Telia Sverige consumer brand and is headquartered in Stockholm.
- Tele2 Sweden — prefixes 070, 073, and 076 (e.g. +46 73 XXX XXXX). Tele2 is Sweden's second-largest carrier and the country's original challenger operator. The Comviq budget brand (prefix 076) is also owned and operated by Tele2.
- Three Sweden (Tre) — prefixes 073 and 076 (e.g. +46 76 XXX XXXX). Three Sweden, branded as Tre, is the third national carrier and part of the CK Hutchison Holdings group. Three operates its own network with strong urban coverage.
When entering a Swedish number on a verification platform, select Sweden (+46) from the country dropdown. Enter the number starting with 7 — without the leading 0 or the +46 country code.
Swedish and Regional Services That Work with These Numbers
- Blocket— Sweden's dominant classifieds platform with over 500,000 active listings at any time, covering cars, apartments, furniture, and electronics. Blocket is owned by Schibsted and requires a Swedish mobile number (+46) for account creation and listing publication. This is the primary use case for +46 numbers among non-resident buyers and sellers.
- Tradera— Sweden's primary auction and fixed-price marketplace, the closest Swedish equivalent to eBay. Tradera is owned by Adevinta and requires phone verification for both buyer and seller accounts.
- Klarna— Stockholm-founded buy-now-pay-later and payments platform. Klarna requires a Swedish mobile number for account verification and payment notifications.
