Finland

The Finnish road authority has decided to signpost E45 from E8, even though the official document uses the Swedish version ("Karesuando") of the name of the village at the border, hinting that it would start on the Swedish side. The Finnish name of the village is Kaaresuvanto, and it's one village only according to the Finnish view, not two. The road is only 800 metres (0.5 mile) long in Finland.

Sweden

In November 2006, the E45 was extended with the current Swedish national road 45, which makes it start from Karesuando at the E8 at the Swedish–Finnish border, over Östersund–Mora–Grums, to Gothenburg and on. This extended the length of the route by about 1690 kilometres. The signs of road 45 was changed to E45 during the summer of 2007. The E45 has now no other national number.
The ferry Gothenburg–Frederikshavn has about 8 daily departures and takes 2–3 hours.
