I did my NQ in The Netherlands, 3 months ago. And as BackPacker replied, here in the low lands we are unable to fly NVFR (seems to be dangerous of some kind when you fly over a flat country), so we do our NQ on a IFR flight plan. The solo is done with an instructor next to you who will not touch the controls while you complete your 5 t/g's. This time is counted as PIC time.

So I would ask if the swedish authority will approve a NQ from a Dutch FTO. If the answer is yes, you will have your entry for your IR training.

I have a friend who did his IR in spain. He forgot to check the requirements about night flying and completed the training there including the skilltest. When he returned and someone looked in his logbook, he asked why he didn't have to do night flying before starting the IR.

Long story short, he did his NQ AFTER the IR and still got his license. So I see plenty of options here.
