Our own practice questions, written from the facts in UHR’s study material “Sverige i fokus” and the subjects of the ordinance (2026:451) on the citizenship test. They are not the real test questions, which are not published, and no text from the material is reused. Each question was written, answered blind and fact-checked in separate rounds. The English translation and the explanations are ours, made with AI help; in the test the questions are asked in Swedish.
