Duty free liquor here often undercuts Swedish high-street prices
Göteborg Duty Free sits directly after security at Landvetter, and flyers call out the liquor and cosmetics prices as “super priced” compared with downtown Sweden. Hours track the day’s departures, so if flights are running, this shop is open. Think quick grab of whisky, vodka, or perfume on the way to the gates rather than a slow browse.
Selection skews toward spirits, wine, tobacco, skincare, makeup, and a smaller shelf of chocolates and travel snacks. You’ll see the usual Scandinavian and global brands lined up right as you exit the security check, so you can be in and out in under 10 minutes before heading to your gate. Payment in SEK and cards is standard, and pricing is clearly tagged so you can compare fast against what you saw in Göteborg city.
If you’ve bought big-ticket items downtown and plan to claim VAT, note one detail: the tax refund (VAT) desk is downstairs landside before check-in, and staff there may ask to see your goods with tags still on. That matters if you’re choosing between a camera or bag from the city plus refund versus a tax-free version here after security.
Practical play: price-check your liquor or cosmetics in town, snap a photo of the shelf label, then compare at Göteborg Duty Free after security. With flights controlling opening hours, don’t leave it for the last 5 minutes before boarding.
