Obs:
Persons with dual citizenship, of which one is Swedish, are not included in these statistics.
From 1999 and onward, citizenship is only reported for existing countries. People who were previously citizens in non-existing countries are reported as having an unknown country of citizenship. In earlier years the last registered citizenship is reported although the country at the time ceased to exist. In summer 2006, Serbia and Montenegro became two separate countries instead of one country as previously. People who were previously citizens of Serbia and Montenegro and who have not registered a new country of citizenship with the Swedish Migration Board are reported as having an unknown country of citizenship. This explains the large increase in people with an unknown country of citizenship.
Kosovo: 2008-03-04, Sweden declared Kosovos independence.
Palestine: 2014-10-30, Sweden recognized the state of Palestine.
