What about tipping in Sweden? Do you tip the couriers that deliver food to your home (and what would be an average tip)?

Wikipedia has good information about tipping customs and laws in countries throughout the world. Here's the Swedish entry [1].

As a rule of thumb: apart from the English-speaking countries in EU, tipping is not mandatory.

It's not mandatory in the UK either. It's certainly pretty common in restaurants, as long as they don't already add a service charge, but it's unusual to tip in just about any other situation.
