Of course, with an open Schengen visa, you have every right to visit all countries of the Schengen Agreement, before the end of your visa, not exceeding the number of days indicated in it.

Sweden is one of the 25 countries of the Shengge agreement, which means that it is only necessary to have an open Schengen visa to enter its territory, as well as any other country from Schengen members. Passport control has been completely abolished within the Schengen zone. Depending on the type of Schengen visa in the Schengen area, you can stay up to 90 days in the half-year.

Once Sweden is the main host country, then the visa you receive must be Swedish. But if you plan to visit several countries, in this case it is recommended to open a visa to the country through which you will enter the Schengen territory, so that there are no problems with customs services. At the same time, visa laws should be reckoned with: a visa entitles the person to stay in Schengen for no more than three months once (except for vunge and work visas).

It is important to remember that all countries of the Schengen zone have general visa control: violating the rules of passport control in one of them, risking further denial of the subsequent entry into any Schengen country, because the passport data of all violators are recorded in a common base.
