The embassy is located in Puerto Madero and its staff consists (in 2019) of three people from the Ministry for Foreign Affairs and six local employees.

[16] In January 1957, an agreement was reached between the Swedish and Argentine governments on the mutual elevation of the respective countries' legations to embassies.

As of July 2024, nine people work at the Swedish Embassy in Buenos Aires, three of whom are dispatched from the Ministry for Foreign Affairs.

The embassy also collaborates closely with other Swedish organizations, such as the Swedish-Argentine Chamber of Commerce and Business Sweden's office in Santiago de Chile.

Foreign nationals applying for residence permits to move to Sweden can also receive migration services at the embassy.

[20] Between the chancery opening in 1906 and 1943, it moved around to several locations around Buenos Aires before getting a fixed point on Avenida Corrientes 330 where it stayed for over 50 years.

The floor where the embassy worked had limitations that conditioned architectural creativity: a long corridor, with one office behind another, resembling train cars.

One was to move the embassy to the Swedish Seamen's Church, another to the modern building complex of Puerto Madero, and a third was to Casa de Suecia (built in 1951).

Architects Henrik Östman and Javier Hernán Rojo had to evaluate and calculate the costs involved in renovating the old embassy, or rebuilding the Swedish Association's party rooms, as well as the bar, often empty, on the sixth and seventh floors of the building on Tacuarí 137.

It was concluded that the cost of both renovations was similar, but there was an important difference between the two alternatives: Östman and Rojo showed that the two upper floors of the Casa de Suecia allowed a greater range of architectural possibilities.

By then both Ylva Gabrielsson, a diplomat at the embassy, and Lennart Berglund, the president of the Swedish Association, had become enthusiastic collaborators, and were already convinced of the idea.

[21] Both the tenant, that is, the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the owner, the National Property Board of Sweden, communicated permanently with the architects thanks to the fax.

Argentine architects, for their part, were fascinated by the practical and unassuming stance of the Swedes; such is the case of the ambassador, willing to use, without inconvenience, the same facilities that were offered to his employees.
