Sweden was one of twenty-eight nations that sent a delegation to the 1968 Summer Paralympics in Tel Aviv, Israel from November 4 to 13, 1968.

[1][n 1] The Paralympics groups athletes' disabilities into one of five disability categories; amputation, the condition may be congenital or sustained through injury or illness; cerebral palsy; wheelchair athletes, there is often overlap between this and other categories; visual impairment, including blindness; Les autres, any physical disability that does not fall strictly under one of the other categories, for example dwarfism or multiple sclerosis.

[4][5] Each Paralympic sport then has its own classifications, dependent upon the specific physical demands of competition.

Two Swedish pairs entered; Luks and Andersson lost in the first round to the Australians Roy Fowler and Kevin Bawden; Johansson and Hansson also lost in the first round to Belgian pair Schelfaut and Desal.

[8] One man entered weightlifting events for Sweden, Benny Nilsson in the featherweight division.
