Civil Aviation Administration (Sweden) Explained

The Swedish Civil Aviation Administration (Swedish: '''Luftfartsverket''') is a Swedish Government agency which regulated and oversaw all aspects of aviation in Sweden until 2005. The regulatory division was called Swedish: Luftfartsstyrelsen (Civil Aviation Authority).

The Air Navigation Service Provider (ANSP) (Swedish: Flygtrafiktjänsten) was established as Swedish: Luftfartsverket (LFV). The agency had its head office in Norrköping.^[1]

In 2005 the regulatory division was separated to a new agency named Luftfartsstyrelsen, from 2009 part of Transportstyrelsen.

On 1 April 2010, the airport ownership and operation part of the Luftfartsverket was transferred to Swedish Airports (Swedavia AB), a newly formed fully state-owned company.^[2]

Air navigation services continue as a state enterprise under the name LFV.^[3]
