Bedeutung
To be invited to an event.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The 'OSA' (RSVP) is sacred. If you have an invitation, you must reply by the date, or you risk never being invited again. Swedes value predictability. Similar to Sweden, but invitations to a 'stuga' (summer cottage) are often more informal and verbal, though 'ha en inbjudan' still applies to weddings. Invitations to 'after work' (AW) events are often digital. Having an invitation on LinkedIn or a company Slack channel is common. Invitations to doctoral defenses (disputation) or formal balls (gasquer) are highly ritualized and often require a physical card.
Digital Invites
Even if it's just an email, Swedes still call it 'en inbjudan'. Don't feel you need a physical card to use this phrase.
Don't be a 'gatecrasher'
In Sweden, showing up without 'ha en inbjudan' is a major social faux pas. Always check if an event is 'öppet för alla' (open to all).

The 'Ska' Trick
Use 'Du ska ha en inbjudan' to tell someone they should have received one already. It's very common in customer service.
The RSVP
If you 'har en inbjudan', look for the letters 'OSA'. It stands for 'Om Svar Anhålles' (Reply Requested).
