Information concerning visa arrangements:<br />
Entry Visa: A visa is a permit required by persons wishing to enter Sweden for a temporary visit, or simply when<br />
passing through in transit. In Sweden, entry visas follow the rules set forth by the Schengen agreement.<br />
If you are not a citizen of a Schengen country, you may need a visa to enter the Schengen zone. Such visas are<br />
usually valid in all Schengen countries and entitle the bearer to travel freely between them until the visa expires.<br />
However, since rules vary from country to country in Europe, please obtain relevant information from the<br />
Swedish Embassy/Consulate in your home country before going to Sweden.<br />
Despite the fact that control of individuals has been abolished at the frontiers between the Schengen countries,<br />
everyone should bring documentation proving their nationality when travelling in the Schengen zone. People<br />
from countries outside the EU must be able to show a valid passport. If you are required to have a visa, you<br />
must be able to show a valid visa or residence permit.<br />
To obtain a visa you need to apply for it immediately after you have received your Letter of Acceptance at an<br />
embassy or consulate in your country. When applying for a visa you need a valid passport, a "Letter of<br />
Acceptance", certification of financial support and health insurance coverage. The general rule is that you apply<br />
for a visa at the embassy/consulate of the country you mainly intend to visit. The process may take up to two<br />
months, so please apply in good time.<br />
Foreign citizens with a residence permit in a Schengen country may also travel freely in the zone for a total<br />
period of three months. This means, for instance, that a foreign citizen living in Sweden may visit friends living in<br />
another Schengen country without first having to apply for a visa. (Information available on www.lu.se)<br />
