EEA / EU Family Visa – Sweden

Hassle-free visa processing for your travel needs.

Overview

If you are a family member of an EU/EEA citizen who is exercising their right to free movement under Directive 2004/38/EC, you may apply for a short-stay Schengen visa (Type C) to accompany or join them in Sweden. This visa allows stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period in Sweden and other Schengen countries.

If your purpose is to settle in Sweden, you must apply for a residence card within three months of arrival. This visa is strictly for short visits and does not grant long-term residency rights.

Eligibility

You may apply under this category if you meet both of the following conditions:

  • You are a qualifying family member of an EU/EEA citizen (excluding Swedish citizens living in Sweden).
  • You are accompanying or joining the EU/EEA citizen in Sweden as they exercise their right of free movement.

Who Qualifies as a Family Member

  • Spouse, registered partner, or common-law partner
  • Children (biological or stepchildren) under 21 years of age or dependants
  • Dependent parents or grandparents (direct relatives in the ascending line), including those of your spouse or partner

Your Visa, Our Priority – With our express appointment scheduling and expert guidance, your visa process is handled with ease.
