If you have been invited to study or invited as an exchange doctoral student in Sweden for a period longer than three months, you must apply for a visitor’s permit.

You need to book an appointment with the Embassy of Sweden in Rome to register your application.

When the Embassy has registered your application, it will be sent to the Swedish Migration Agency for handling and decision.
