What does it cost to apply for Swedish citizenship?
Migrationsverket charges an application fee for adult citizenship (1,500 SEK has long been the standard fee). The fee is paid when applying and is not refunded if refused.
Fees
The general rule is an application fee for adult applicants. Children included as co-applicants in a parent's application are normally covered without extra fee, while notification cases have lower fees. Check current amounts on migrationsverket.se as fees may change.
Bear in mind
The fee is not refunded if you are refused. It therefore pays to submit a complete and correct application from the start – it reduces the risk of refusal on formal grounds.
Always check current rules with Migrationsverket as rules may change.
