Sweden is set to revoke the 'sparbyte' immigration path on April 1st, which will impact thousands of foreign workers. This decision means that rejected asylum seekers who transitioned to work permits under this provision will no longer be able to extend their permits. Specifically, those who were granted permits based on chapter 5, paragraph 15a of the Swedish Aliens Act will be affected. The Migration Agency anticipates that around 26,000 individuals may face issues as a result of this policy change, necessitating urgent action for many.
The revocation of the 'sparbyte' immigration path in Sweden affects thousands of foreign workers, mandating an urgent reassessment of their residency status.
From April 1st, a new law abolishes the ability of rejected asylum seekers to obtain work permits without leaving Sweden, significantly impacting their status.
Those on temporary work permits, who transitioned after a rejected asylum application through 'sparbyte', will need to verify legal provisions to determine their status.
Approximately 26,000 foreign workers who initially used 'sparbyte' to switch from asylum to work permits will be impacted by the law changes.
