The Border Service: It should be easy to get it right

The three cross-border information services Grensetjästen Norge-Sverige, Gränstjänsten Sverige-Finland-Norge and Øresunddirekt are particularly important in the efforts to address border obstacles in the Nordic region.

They are organised in different ways, with participation and funding from different authorities, regional actors and in some instances municipal actors. 

All three are financed by the Nordic Council of Ministers. The information services share three core tasks: information, integration and border obstacle work.

In 2024, the cross-border information centres and Info Norden had more than 3.9 million online visitors, 41,500 in-person requests and participated in nearly 500 seminars and information meetings.
