Strömstad is a roll-on/roll-off ferry and fishing port on Sweden's west coast, close to the Norwegian border, rather than a container or general-cargo terminal. Its main maritime artery is the Color Line service to Sandefjord, a roughly 2.5-hour crossing carrying passengers, cars and accompanied trailer freight; local archipelago ferries also link the Koster Islands. The town is a notable base for North Sea prawn fishing. Heavier containerised trade for western Sweden is concentrated at Gothenburg, reached overland via the E6 and the Bohus rail line. Because Norway sits outside the EU, the Sweden–Norway ferry traffic still involves customs formalities handled by the Swedish authorities. For forwarders, Strömstad suits ro-ro and trailer flows, not boxed liner cargo.
