3.4.3 Visitors' permits for relatives
Relatives who do not wish to work or study in Sweden may be granted a visitors' residence permit for visits exceeding 90 days. The Swedish Migration Agency will normally only grant such permits for a maximum period of nine months.
An application for a visitors' residence permit must be approved by the Swedish Migration Agency prior to arrival in Sweden. An application can be submitted to a Swedish embassy or consulate general.

Relatives of staff members who wish to visit for a period of less than 90 days should apply for a Schengen visa (C visa). The applications should be submitted to the nearest Swedish embassy or consulate general in the region.
