Sweden - Family & Partner - Moving to a Swedish Citizen (Spouse Visa)
If you have not lived together in your country of origin, as a rule the Swedish Migration Board will grant residence permits for two years, in some cases for shorter periods, although at least one year. You must then apply for an extension.
If the relationship ends during the time you have a temporary residence permit, the permit is usually not extended. The Swedish Migration Board can also cancel the residence permit if the relationship ends. In each individual case, we still consider whether there are any reasons to grant a continuation of the residence permit.
