Date Formatting
Use European date standard order for dates in lists and date pickers: 2022-07-10
For time spans: 2022-07-10 to 2022-07-31
Otherwise use this preferred and clearer way: 10 July 2022

Use colons and dashes (tankstreck) without spaces between times.

Currency Guidelines
For Private Customers
We use "kronor" or "kr" in contexts like buying flows, where there's no risk of confusion with other local currencies, such as in our digital services for private individuals. Always write it in lowercase across all languages.

For Business Customers
In digital services that support multiple currencies for the same customer, we use SEK, DKK, NOK, or EUR instead of "kr" or "kronor." This is often the case in our digital services for companies.
