Sweden–Uruguay relations are foreign relations between Sweden and Uruguay. Sweden has a consulate in Montevideo; the Swedish ambassador in Buenos Aires is concurrent to Uruguay. Uruguay has an embassy in Stockholm, the ambassador being concurrent to Norway, Denmark, Finland, Latvia and Estonia.
Sweden was an important refuge for Uruguayan exiles during the civic-military dictatorship (1973-1985); there are several Uruguayans who still live in Sweden.
State visits
In October 2011, Uruguayan President José Mujica paid an official visit to Sweden.
