To renew a Sweden Residence Permit, you must apply before your current permit expires. Applications are made online through the Swedish Migration Agency’s website. You’ll need your passport, proof of continued employment, studies, or family relationship, and evidence that you still meet financial and housing requirements. Renewal fees must be paid, and in some cases, new biometrics may be required. If you apply on time, you may remain in Sweden legally while awaiting a decision.
Processing times vary, so it’s recommended to submit your extension application several months before your permit expires.
