On 1 October, the rules for Swedish citizenship will change – for young people, for people in a vulnerable situation, and for Nordic citizens
For young people who want to be granted Swedish citizenship, requirements for living a well-behaved life are being introduced. For people in a vulnerable situation, the protection of Swedish citizenship is being strengthened. The changes for Nordic citizens have to do with the fact that in the future, notifications of citizenship will be made to the Swedish Migration Agency instead of the relevant county administrative board.
