The Ambassador of Sweden to Barbados (known formally as the Ambassador of the Kingdom of Sweden to Barbados) is the official representative of the government of Sweden to the president of Barbados and government of Barbados. Since Sweden does not have an embassy in Bridgetown, Sweden's ambassador to Barbados is based in Stockholm, Sweden.

History

On the occasion of the proclamation of Barbados' independence on 30 November 1966, Sweden's Prime Minister Tage Erlander stated in a congratulatory telegram to Barbados' Prime Minister, Errol Barrow, that the Swedish government recognized Barbados as a sovereign and independent state and expressed the Swedish government's wish to maintain friendly and cordial relations with Barbados. [1]

Sweden and Barbados established diplomatic relations on 19 March 1976. [2] The same year, Sweden's ambassador in Caracas, Venezuela, was also accredited to Barbados' capital, Bridgetown. [3]

Since 1997, a Stockholm-based ambassador-at-large for the countries in and around the Caribbean Sea, including Barbados, has been accredited in Bridgetown.
