BTH would like to raise your attention to fraud attempt regarding residence permits. It has come to our attention that students have been contacted regarding their residence permit applications. The callers have claimed to be calling from an embassy and/or referred to https://government.se/.

Applications for residence permits (including extensions) are handled only by the Swedish Migration Agency. The Swedish Migration Agency, or the Swedish Embassy, never discuss fees or other money issues over the phone.

If you have received a suspicious phone call, kindly contact the International Office at BTH as well as the Swedish Migration Agency or the the Swedish Embassy.
