Changed opening hours (Visa & Migration section)

In order to reduce the risk of spread of COVID-19 virus the Embassy of Sweden in Cairo decided to temporarily change opening hours for the migration section.

The migration reception will be open for public cases every working day (Sunday to Thursday) between 09.30 -11.00. Telephone hours are from 13.00 – 14.00.

We kindly encourage to submit online applications instead of paper applications in order to limit the unnecessary visit at the reception. The processing time at the Swedish Migration Agency is the same regardless if your application was submitted as paper on online. For more information please visit: www.migrationsverket.se

If you have submitted an online application for a residence permit, you should schedule an appointment after the Swedish Migration Agency has asked you to do so. It is important that you state the control or case number and personal details of all family members that are applying. Use the form here to book an appointment:  Form to book appointment

If you wish to book an appointment to submit a paper application for residence permit at the Embassy, please use the form here to book an appointment: Form to book appointment

All the inquiries shall therefore be made by e-mail to: ambassaden.kairo-visum@gov.se. We will respond all the inquiries within 2 working days.
