Entering the EU with insurance info on cellphone

My question concerns entering EU via Sweden to get to Helsinki, I have given all the documents (invitation, contract of my house, bank account, etc.) to my friend. She has printed all of them. I have also bought a ticket to London to get out of the Schengen area, but the insurance is not printed; she has it in her phone to display. Could there be problems with Swedish customs since that is not on paper but on her cellphone?

EDIT: Sorry I misspoke; as Mexicans, we do not require visas to enter the EU, but the Schengen area asks for insurance.

EDIT2: I want to wait until it has passed to see who got the correct answer :)

Best Answer

As Mexican citizen, she doesn't need to apply for a visa and therefore does not need insurance. While a return ticket is not formally required, it's certainly useful to be able to show one. Border guards can ask her to produce other supporting documents but most of the time they don't do it.
