At least one voting station in each municipality will be open for early voting until election day on June 9.

Sweden will elect 21 members to the EU Parliament, one more than in the last EU election in 2019. This increase is due to Brexit, which resulted in Sweden gaining an additional seat, previously held by the Green Party's Jakop Dalunde.

In this year's EU election, a total of 7,946,261 people are eligible to vote in Sweden, according to statistics from the Election Authority. This is 369,000 more than in 2019.

The number of first-time voters, those who will have turned 18 by election day, is 572,281 in this year's EU election. This is a significant increase from the 2019 EU election when there were 498,592 first-time voters.

The start of voting coincides with the party leaders' EU election debate in Parliament.
