Individual-based data for research purposes
Register data is protected by strict confidentiality but can be made available for research after a special review. Applications for individual-based data for research purposes generally take 6–8 months from order to delivery and we charge SEK 1,650 (excl. VAT) per hour for the time spent on submitted applications. The fee includes administration, legal consultation and data withdrawal.
The National Board of Health and Welfare is a government agency under the Ministry of Health and Social Affairs. It is not our policy to provide individual level data to researchers abroad. Instead, we normally advice researchers in other countries to cooperate with Swedish colleagues, to whom we can provide data according to standard legal provisions and procedures.
