The Consulate General of Sweden, Houston is the diplomatic mission of Sweden in Houston. The Swedish Consulate General in Houston has a long and varied history, first established in 1950 and later upgraded to a consulate general in 1963. After periods of closure and transformation, the mission was permanently shut down in 1981, followed by decades of activity only through an honorary consulate.

In 2025, the Consulate General was officially reopened. Today, it is located at 3040 Post Oak Boulevard in the Greater Uptown district of Houston. Its consular district consists solely of the state of Texas, reflecting a more focused jurisdiction compared to its earlier, much larger regional role. The Consulate General's main task is to promote cooperation between Sweden and the United States in trade, investment, and innovation, building stronger economic and business ties between Sweden and Texas.
