Residence permit in Sweden via self-employment
Sweden is the sixteenth-richest country in the world in terms of GDP (gross domestic product) per capita, and it's known for its well-developed government programs, welfare and high qualify of life.
It's common to hear that Sweden is the country with the best benefits for workers, citizens, and foreigners alike. You will pay high taxes but can expect visible returns right away.
Sweden is an excellent destination for foreigners looking to start a career in a better country. Not a lot of people talk about migrating there, and I'm always surprised by that.
If you would like to explore this option, a great way is to do some research about the Residence permit for people who have their own business.
You don't need to be a business guru. If you're a digital marketer, for example, you can start setting up your own website and start as a freelancer, offering your services to clients.
You should be able to do that for up to three months in Sweden before you actually need to apply for this residence permit, which is enough time to know if this is something you think you can do.
If you are, the requirements for this visa are not extremely hard. Here's what you need:
Online application via the website linked above.
Experience in your field and also in getting clients.
Knowledge in Swedish and/or English.
The services or goods must be produced and/or sold in Sweden.
Around 20k USD to provide for yourself. That will be higher for each family member joining you.
If you're excited or intrigued about the idea of moving to Sweden, this website is helpful to learn more about the country.
Good luck!
