  • Digital passport check has saved the equivalent of 86 trips around the world

    To make it easier for people applying for a residence permit, the Swedish Migration Agency launched a pilot for digital passport check in May. More than 5,100 people have taken advantage of the opportunity and during the first hundred days, the service has saved the equivalent of 86 trips around the world.“We are now focusing on how we can further develop the digital passport control and give more groups access to it”, says Fredrik Larsson, expert at the Swedish Migration Agency.
