The formula
How to convert SEK to USD
The maths behind a SEK to USD conversion is one multiplication, no rounding tricks. On 18 August 2026 that rate is 0.105288, so:
USD = SEK × 0.105288
Going the other way, divide instead of multiply — or multiply by 9.4978, which amounts to the same thing: one US Dollar buys 9.4978 Swedish Kronor.
The converter at the top of this page does both directions and updates as you type. Every result is recalculated on the server as well, so the number you see is the number that gets stored.
About the Swedish Krona and the US Dollar
The Swedish Krona (SEK, symbol kr) is the currency of Sweden. The US Dollar (USD, symbol $) is the currency of the United States.
The rate is set by continuous trading, which is why it rarely reads the same two days running. The feed publishes mid-market figures, which is what financial reporting cites. Actual exchange costs a margin on top.
Worked SEK to USD examples
A price tag. Something marked kr50 comes to 5.2644 USD. Round to 5 USD for a quick mental check while you are standing in the shop.
A monthly salary. kr3,000 a month is 315.86 USD — useful when you are comparing a job offer across the two markets. Bear in mind the rate moves, so a figure agreed today will not be the figure paid out in six months.
Going the other way. If you are holding $1,000 and want to know what it buys in Swedish Kronor, that is 9497.76 SEK. The converter handles both directions — use the swap button between the two fields.
Watch the margin. At a bureau charging 3%, your kr500 would fetch roughly 51.0647 USD instead of 52.644 USD. That gap is what the mid-market rate on this page lets you spot.

No. This is the mid-market reference rate — the midpoint between what buyers and sellers are quoting. Banks, card issuers and bureaus add a margin, so expect somewhat less than shown. Use it as a benchmark to judge whether an offer is fair.
