Its exchange rate plays a crucial role in determining the affordability of living expenses in Sweden for international students. As of May 2024,<strong> 1 INR is equivalent to approximately 0.13 SEK<\/strong>, offering a relatively favourable exchange rate for Indian students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sweden is a highly digitised society, with cashless payments being the norm.
