Start ApplicationSwedish Schengen C-Visas
A Schengen Visa is an official document for travel. It permits a person to travel to any Schengen area nation. For stays up to ninety days for tourism or business.
The Schengen region includes 26 European nations. The region primarily functions as a single authority for foreign travel, with a uniform visa policy. Before entering Europe, nationals of some countries that have not yet concluded a liberalisation agreement will be required to get this travel authorisation.
Sweden National D-Visas
If you want to remain in Sweden for longer than 90 days, you must apply for a residence permit or national D-Visa rather than a Sweden Schengen visa.
Your visa must be valid for a minimum of three months and a maximum of one year, regardless of the duration of your intended stay. To extend your stay beyond the period of your visa, you must submit an application to a prefecture for a residence permit.
Throughout the duration of its validity, the long-stay visa is equivalent to a Schengen visa, enabling you to travel and stay in the Schengen region outside of Sweden for up to 90 days in any 180-day period, under the same conditions as if you had a Schengen visa.
If you are a citizen of a country that does not need a visa to enter the Schengen zone, you may travel visa-free and apply for your national visa/residence permit in the country where you desire to dwell permanently.
Swedish Schengen Purposes
Tourism is one of the most well-known motivations for entering the Schengen zone. However, you may mention a variety of reasons as your trip objective on your application, including:
Visiting Family or Friends - people who want to pay a visit to relatives or friends who are legitimately residing in the Schengen area.
Business - Many people travel to and from the Schengen countries on a regular basis for business purposes.
Medical grounds – For medical treatment in any of the Schengen member nations.
Students and learners -who plan to attend any kind of educational institution for fewer than three months, such as university courses, language classes, and other course
Cultural, Sports, and Film Crews - a visa designed for those who live outside of the Schengen area who wish to visit Europe for a Cultural, Sports, or Religious Event,

Other Schengen Visas
A Visa is required for any third national wishing to enter Sweden or any other Schengen country. It could be a short-stay Schengen C-visa for stays of up to 90 days or a national D-visa / residence permit for longer stays in the country.
What To Do If Your Swedish Visa is Refused?
Refusal of a Swedish visa application can be irritating, and upsetting. It always appears unfair. Refusals of Swedish visas are actually common, and the Swedish embassy has no problem issuing them. After all, the Swedish embassy keeps the visa funds whether an application is accepted or rejected. Additionally, more applications and appeals benefit them more.
On a regular basis, people ask us how to “guarantee” that a visa will be granted. The Swedish embassy takes all final decisions, so there is no way to obtain a 100% assurance, is the succinct response. All you can do, though, is make sure your application is as solid as it can be. If you have had a Visa to Swedish refused please contact us.
