==Sweden== {{Unreferenced|section|date=October 2024}} In Sweden, membership in a {{lang|se|siida}} follows "pastoralist rights" based on [[statute of limitations]], and is limited to individuals of Sámi descent. These rights also include hunting and fishing for profit. There are thirty-three mountain {{lang|se|siida}}s, ten forest {{lang|se|siida}}s and eight concession {{lang|se|siida}}s, divided by historical extent, summer and winter pasture usage, etc. Membership is required to practice pastoralist rights. This is required for reindeer ownership as well, except in concession {{lang|se|siida}}s, where even non-members can own "serve reindeers", served by {{lang|se|siida}} members who receiving concession to pasture lands in payment. This custom originates in older conventions when reindeer were used by settled local populations in daily life. The economic activity in present-day {{lang|se|siida}}s is limited to profit from pastoralist rights. In addition to the geographical and economic nature of the {{lang|se|siida}}, it also ties the members together culturally and socially. Based on historic [[Swedification]] policies that distinguished between settled and nomadic Sámi, membership in Swedish {{lang|se|siida}}s is essentially limited to those whose ancestors were nomads before 1886, barring the majority of Swedish Sámi from membership in a {{lang|se|siida}}. === Swedish sameby === '''Mountain Sámi villages:''' Könkämä, Lainiovuoma, Saarivuoma, Talma, Gabna, Leavas, Girjas, Báste, Unna Tjerusj, Sirges, Jåkkåkaskatjiellde, Tuorpon, Luokta Mavas, Semisjaur-Njarg, Svaipa, Grans, Rans, Ubmeje tjeälddie, Vapstens, Vilhelmina norra, Vilhelmina södra, Frostvikens norra, Ohredahke, Raedtievaerie, Jiingevaerie, Jovnevaerie, Njaarke, Kall, Handölsdalens, Tåssåsens, Mittådalens, Ruvhten Sijte, and Idre '''Forest Sámi villages:''' Vittangi, Gällivare, Serri, Udtja, Ståkke, Maskaur, Västra Kikkejaur, Östra Kikkejaur, Mausjaur, and Malå '''Concession Sámi villages:''' Muonio, Sattajärvi, Tärendö, Korju, Pirttijärvi, Ängeså, Kalix, and Liehittäjä
