Starting a non-profit association
Have an idea for a new student space association?
We’re here to help turn your vision into reality. Founding an association is a fantastic way to engage fellow students, organize projects, and contribute to Sweden’s growing space community.
If you need support or advice on establishing your association, please reach out to us via contact@spacestudents.se. We ensure you have the tools to launch your association successfully.
Apply for an organization number
Do we need to apply for an organization number?
No, there is no requirement for a non-profit association to have an organization number. However, the association must have an organization number if, for example, you want to open a bank account or apply for grants.
Organization numbers are issued by Skatteverket. Read here about what is required to apply.

Managing an association
Running an association can be complex. We provide practical advice on:
- Establishing an effective governance structure.
- Planning and executing events.
- Managing finances responsibly.
Bylaws
We suggest you check out the bylaws templates from Astronomisk Ungdom here.
Membership management
The association uses the membership system eBas. Through eBas, your organization can, among other things, view and manage the membership list, send mailings to members, access online registration, and upload minutes from general meetings. Manuals on how to use the system can be found here and here.
If you have been granted access to eBas and would like to log in, you can do so here.
