Can I travel to Schengen countries on my Swedish work permit

Post by abhishek1984 » Fri May 27, 2011 2:50 pm

I am currently working in Sweden on a work permit. I wanted to know if I can travel to other schengen states on this work permit or do I need a separate visa?

Hi abhishek1984,

welcome to the forum.

Yes, a Swedish work permit/residence permit allows travelling throughout the Schengen-zone without any other papers/visas... Only limit: 90 days in any country each time. However your passport won´t be stamped, so this is not really verifiable...

...enjoy the Schengen-zone!

Rgds, Christian
