If you live in Lebanon you need to continue to travel to other countries to visit the Swedish embassy

The embassy office in Beirut has opened for visitors again, but due to the security situation, the embassy’s activities remain restricted.

There are still no on-site migration activities in Beirut. If you wish to apply for a visa or a residence permit, you need to visit another embassy or consulate general in the region.

Appli­ca­tion for a resi­dence and work permit

If you live in Lebanon and want to apply for a work permit, a residence permit for studies or a residence permit to live with a family member in Sweden, you can contact the embassy in Amman, Jordan. If you are a stateless Palestinian living in Lebanon, you should contact the Swedish Embassy in Cairo or the Consulate General in Istanbul.
