Since 12 November 2015 the
Swedish Police perform
ID checks on passengers on incoming
Øresundståg trains from
Denmark via
Copenhagen Airport, in response to the
European migrant crisis. Trains arriving in Hyllie have to wait around 15 minutes to be cleared for departure. For Swedish and Nordic citizens, a driver's license should suffice. For citizens outside the European Union, Norway and Switzerland, a passport is needed, and if applicable a permit to travel freely within the EU, like a visa or residence permit, is needed. The railway station was built with the
Nordic Passport Union and
Schengen Agreement in mind, both of which say there are no border control between concerned countries, so no border control facilities were planned. Since the station has four tracks, it was possible to fence one track and perform border control there, although bridge traffic had to be reduced. ==References==
