The Ambassador of Sweden to Australia (known formally as the Ambassador of the Kingdom of Sweden to the Commonwealth of Australia) is the official representative of the government of Sweden to the governor-general and the Australian government.
History
In 1945, Constans Lundquist was appointed consul general at Sydney with jurisdiction in the Fiji Islands. He was appointed as Sweden's first envoy to Sydney in August 1947 when the Swedish legation was established and the consulate general closed. In October 1947, he presented his credentials in Canberra as Sweden's first envoy to Australia to Governor-General William McKell.
In 1963, an agreement was reached between the Swedish and Australian governments on the mutual elevation of the respective countries' legations to embassies. The diplomatic rank was thereafter changed to ambassador instead of envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary.
