Heraldic registries in Scandinavia

While armorial practice varies from country to country in Scandinavia the arms of private citizens are subject to no State control. There are four private associations (two in Sweden, two in Finland) that cater for private arms.

 

Skandinavisk VappenRulla

Published by the Stiftelsen Skandinavisk VappenRulla (Scandinavian Roll of Arms Foundation) – open to any citizen of Sweden, Denmark or Norway.

 

Svenska Heraldiska Föreningen

Swedish Heraldry Association

 

The Heraldry Society of Finland

Suomen Heraldinen Seura/Heraldisken Sällskab i Finland – registers the arms of any Finnish resident, and of people of Finnish descent anywhere in the world.

 

Collegium Heraldicum Fennicum

This organisation of heraldic artists, craftsmen and researchers also records arms.
