Q

Do I need to create a new seller account to enter the Swedish site?

Sellers who already have an EU Amazon account (an account that can sell products in the other 6 Amazon European marketplaces at the same time) do not need to create a new seller account. The Swedish site will automatically appear in the seller account.
