About licences to collect debts
Main rule: Anyone who collects a claim on behalf of someone else or claims that have been taken over for collection must normally hold a licence.
The responsibility for debt collection has been transferred to Finansinspektionen (FI)
Please note: On January 1, 2024, the responsibility for licensing and supervision of debt collection operations was passed from the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (IMY) to Finansinspektionen (FI).
