Student Visas for Sweden
Are you from Bangladesh? You might need a residence permit for studies…

Don’t worry, everything is under control. We’re here to make your search for the right international degree in Sweden a little easier and more enjoyable. While we’re working on that, you can get started on your own by:

• Check if you really need a residence permit.
  Since you’re from Bangladesh and planning full-time studies in Sweden, yes, you’ll need a residence permit for studies.
• Start exploring the official Swedish government website.
  The Swedish Migration Agency handles all residence permits for students. That’s where the latest and most reliable information lives. Bookmark it, read it carefully, and reread it.
• Check the deadlines.
  The application process can take several weeks or even months. Missing a step or delaying your application could mean missing the start of your semester. Not the kind of plot twist you want.
• Go on a paperwork treasure hunt.
  Passport?
  Letter of Admission from your Swedish university?
  Residence permit application form, proof of accommodation, bank statements, English proficiency test results, academic transcripts… yes, the list is long, and yes, you’ll need every single piece.
• Start saving up.
  You’ll need to show you can financially support yourself while studying in Sweden. That means proving you can cover tuition (if applicable), living expenses, travel, visa fees, and maybe even those fika breaks.
• Boost your English or Swedish skills.
  Even if you’ve already taken IELTS, TOEFL, or other tests—or plan to study in Swedish—strong language skills help with your studies, integration, and life in Sweden.

All in all, getting your Swedish residence permit might feel like a lot, but it’s one big step toward an even bigger adventure.

Thanks and good luck!
