Applying for a work permit in Sweden

If you are already in Sweden and want to apply for a work permit, you may do this providing you are
  • a student at a university or college in Sweden
  • visiting an employer in Sweden
  • an asylum seeker.

On these pages you will find information that applies to people belonging to these groups.
 
If you are already in Sweden with a work and residence permit and you want to extend it, see the relevant heading to the left under Employees from countries outside Sweden or Self-employed persons from countries outside the EU.
