As a citizen of Sweden, you gain access to rights and opportunities that are available only to Swedish citizens. For example, with Swedish citizenship, you have the right to vote in Sweden’s parliamentary elections and in EU elections. You can also work within professions that require citizenship in Sweden, such as being a police officer or a member of parliament. Additionally, citizenship makes it easier for you to both settle and work in other EU countries if you wish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
