Moving to Sweden
Are you thinking about moving to Sweden? At Van Rooijen Verhuizingen, we’re here to help make this important step as smooth and stress-free as possible for you. With over forty years of experience, we’re the leading specialist in moves to Sweden, and you’ll immediately notice this in our expertise and customer-focused approach.
Sweden is known for its breathtaking nature, vast forests, and tranquil atmosphere. The country offers a unique lifestyle that attracts many people. At Van Rooijen, we understand the specific challenges of moving to Sweden. Our trucks are fully equipped to withstand extreme weather conditions, ensuring your move goes smoothly even during the winter months.
If you are a Dutch citizen moving to Sweden, you do not need a visa or work permit. As an EU citizen, you are free to live and work in Sweden. If you plan to stay in Sweden for more than twelve months, you must register with the Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket). Upon registration, you will receive a so-called personal identification number, comparable to the Dutch BSN.
This personal identification number is important for many everyday matters in Sweden. For example, you’ll need it to open a bank account, sign up for subscriptions, receive your salary, and arrange healthcare. After registering, you can also sign up with Försäkringskassan, the Swedish agency responsible for healthcare and social security. Do you have any questions or would you like personal advice? Feel free to contact us.
