Hyllie Station (Swedish: Hyllie station) is a railway station in the southwestern part of Malmö, Sweden, located in Hyllie city district. It is the first station on the Swedish side of the Öresund Line, being closest to the Øresund Bridge.

The station opened in 2010 as a part of the newly built City Tunnel along with Triangeln railway station and a new underground part of Malmö Central Station.

Close to the station are Malmö Arena and the Emporia shopping mall. Many companies, including Skanska, also have offices next to the station.

The station is being served by Øresundståg regional trains and Pågatågen commuter trains. It is also an important hub for regional bus services to/from Trelleborg, Vellinge, Skanör and Falsterbo.

Border control[]

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 government-issued ID like a driver's license should suffice. For citizens outside the European Union, Norway and Switzerland, a passport and a permit to travel freely within the EU, like a residence permit, should suffice.[2]
