Frequently asked questions
Yes. The Port of Gothenburg is Scandinavia's largest port — handling over 40 million tonnes of cargo annually. The sheer volume makes it an attractive target for cartels smuggling cocaine from South America to Northern Europe.
Frogmen attach cocaine packages to ship hulls below the waterline at departure ports, and other divers with underwater scooters retrieve them at destination ports. In Gothenburg, the Coast Guard and customs found narcotics on a freighter's hull after a tip-off.
In January 2025, workers at a fruit company in Helsingborg discovered 3 tonnes of cocaine in a container from South America worth approximately EUR 300 million — Sweden's largest-ever drug seizure.
In 2024, Tullverket seized a record 1,576 kg of cocaine. In April 2024, 1.3 tonnes of cocaine worth SEK 1.2 billion (USD 126 million) were found at Norvik port south of Stockholm.
The reference code is SE603303. Göteborg Tullverket handles customs clearance at Scandinavia's largest seaport, covering maritime, road and rail transport.
