EligibilityEdit
A temporary alien's passport can be issued to the following:
- for a foreign citizen who lives in Sweden and has no possibility of applying for a country of origin passport or other acceptable travel document in Sweden should be able to apply for a passport abroad. A temporary alien's passport is only issued if there is a travel plan that shows "when, where and how" a country of origin passport is to be obtained outside Sweden.
- for a foreign citizen without a passport who lives in Sweden so he or she immediately will be able to travel abroad for a humanitarian urgent purpose.
- for a foreign citizen currently outside his/her country of origin who may be granted a residence permit for reasons of family ties but has no passport documents that are acceptable in Sweden to be able to travel here. The same applies when a foreign citizen in the same situation is refused a passport by the authorities in his/her country of origin for reasons that are, in our opinion, unacceptable.
- for a foreign citizen with a residence permit in Sweden who is currently abroad, although not in his/her country of origin, that has lost an alien's passport or travel document and who needs a travel document for the return journey to Sweden.
- for a foreign citizen without a residence permit who voluntarily wants to return to his/her country of origin.
- for a foreign citizen who does not get an alien's passport or travel document due to the misuse of a previously issued document for traveling or a serious crime but who needs to make an urgent journey.
