I want to visit Sweden. Do i need a visa?

A visa is a permit to travel and stay in a country for a maximum of 90 days. If you are visiting Sweden and are a citizen of a non-EU country, you may need a visa: Apply for a Schengen visa (visiting Sweden for up to 90 days) – Swedish Migration Agency

If you intend to stay in Sweden for longer than 90 days, you will need a visitors’ residence permit. Visit Sweden for more than 90 days – apply for a visi­tor’s permit - Migrationsverket

If you have a valid residence permit issued by another Schengen country, you do not need to apply for an entry visa to visit Sweden for less than 90 days.

Please visit the boarder police webpage for more information.
