    • Intra-Corporate Transfers (ICT) Permit: For employees transferring within a multinational company.
    • Self-Employment Permit: For those who plan to start their own business in Sweden.

The Application Process:

Applying for a Swedish work permit involves several steps, including submitting your application, providing supporting documents, and waiting for approval. Here’s a brief overview:

  1. Job Offer: You must have a job offer from a Swedish employer.
  2. Prepare Documentation: Gather the necessary documents, such as your passport, employment contract, and proof of qualifications.
  3. Submit Application: The application is usually submitted online through the Swedish Migration Agency’s website.
