If you are not from the EU, here’s what you need to get a work permit in Sweden: 

  • A valid job offer from a Swedish employer 
  • Terms of employment that match Swedish agreements 
  • A minimum salary of SEK 13,000 per month (as of 2024) 
  • The job must be advertised in the EU or EEA for at least 10 days 
  • A valid passport and plans to live in Sweden 
  • Your employer needs to be registered with the Swedish Tax Agency 

Note: Make sure to submit your application before coming to Sweden unless you already have a valid residence permit.
