If you plan to run your own business in Sweden for longer than three months, you must have a residence permit. This permit must be granted before you travel to Sweden. To apply for a residence permit for entrepreneurship, you must meet several criteria. It is important to be able to demonstrate good industry experience and previous experience of running your own business. You will also need a valid passport and sufficient knowledge of Swedish or English.

In addition, you must be able to demonstrate that you have ultimate responsibility for the business and sufficient financial resources to support yourself and any accompanying family. You will also be required to present a credible budget and a well-designed business plan.
