Sweden Job Seeker Visa

Sweden faces a significant shortage of skilled workers across various sectors, including healthcare, engineering, education, and trades like carpentry and electrical work. This shortage is projected to persist for the next five to ten years.
The introduction of the Sweden Job Seeker Visa aims to attract innovative and talented professionals to meet this demand.

The Job Seeker Visa is initially valid for three months but can be extended to nine, specifically for individuals with relevant qualifications who possess an advanced degree. The Swedish Migration Agency evaluates educational credentials directly, ensuring a streamlined application process.

Given the rising demand for skilled professionals, the Job Seeker Visa presents a valuable opportunity for non-EU citizens who prefer not to immigrate through education or business investments. It allows them to temporarily relocate to Sweden, search for jobs, or explore entrepreneurial ventures.
