Work in Europe / Sweden - Jobs, Talent Visa and EU Blue Card - LUS
Info
Sweden Talent Visa Program
Overview
The Swedish government introduced a talent visa program starting from June 1, 2022, aimed at professionals interested in working in Sweden.
Eligibility
This program is designed for individuals who have secured a job offer from a Swedish employer and intend to relocate to Sweden for a duration of four years. The time spent under this work permit contributes towards obtaining Swedish permanent residency.
Processing Time
Applications for a standard work permit can be processed in approximately 10 days if submitted by an organization certified by the Migration Agency.
EU Blue Card
Overview
The EU Blue Card serves as a residence and work permit for non-EU/EEA nationals, comparable to the US Green Card. It facilitates access for highly skilled professionals to work in the EU, offering extensive socio-economic rights and a pathway to permanent residency and EU citizenship.
Eligibility
The Blue Card is suitable for those planning to work in various EU nations over the next four years. Many EU member states offer Blue Card permits, making transitions easier. Additionally, the time spent holding a Blue Card in Sweden may be recognized when applying for permanent residency in another EU country.
Processing Time
Typically, EU Blue Card applications are processed within 2-3 weeks; however, the Migration Agency can take up to 90 days, particularly if the case officer has a heavy workload.
