Has the Embassy received my residence card? How and when can I pick it up?

Once the Swedish Migration Agency has made a positive decision in your case, a residence permit card will be produced and sent to the Embassy. The time between manufacture and arrival of the card takes between three and four weeks.

When the card has arrived at the Embassy, ​​you will receive an automated email. You can then pick it up without reservation any Thursday (except on public holidays when the embassy is closed) between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. (during the month of Ramadan between 2 p.m. and 3 p.m.). 

If you rather would like your card to be sent to your referent in Sweden, please let us know at your interview.
