Processing for a Cultural Exchange Work Permit/Visa [Au Pair] to Sweden PHILIPPINE EDITION ver. 2021 (Pandemic)

Writing this so I would just share these with people who ask me for directions or tips, especially for those who's living outside Metro Manila. This is gonna be a comprehensive FAQ Sheet for commuting, processing and where to go and how to send out your paper. But keep in mind that this is how Work Permits and Visas are being processed during the pandemic. Defo, the process will change once everything is back to normal. 

We're gonna cover the STEP by STEP Process. I've previously received a simple guideline which you will read down below. This came from a fellow au pair aspirant who's already in Sweden. Apologies for not being able to give her credit because I honestly don't know her name.

You can access DETAILED STEPS once you click the "Step _". They will be written in Filipino.


NOT MINE - NOT MINE - NOT MINE - NOT MINE - NOT MINE - NOT MINE - NOT MINE - 

Step 1: What you will need: signed contract, picture of your passport, & pdf copy ng comprehensive health insurance. Need ng host mo ang photo ng passport mo para makagawa siya ng application ng work permit mo. Once na-apply na niya work permit mo sa Migrationsverket, makaka-receive ka ng e-mail and then may link doon. Step 2: After clicking the link, fill-up the necessary information, during answering the application i-a-attach mo dito ang pdf copy ng insurance mo. Sa pinakadulo ng application yung payment, kung si host ang magbabayad, save mo muna ang application then may ise-send na e-mail ang Migrationsverket na may link to continue the application, ibigay/i-forward mo sa host ang e-mail na yun at ibigay mo rin yung log-in email mo at password mo sa kanya para siya ang magbabayad sa account mo. Once paid, may e-mail yan at start na ng paghintay ng 2-4 months. Step 3: After nang ilang months mag-e-mail ang Migrationsverket para sa additional requirements mo (usual na hinihingi nila: additional insurance/updated date of arrival in Sweden). Once naka-send ka na, wait ka ulit ng e-mail. Step 4: Kapag naka-receive ka na ng e-mail na approved na, sasabihin dun na you need to contact the nearest Swedish embassy (Bangkok kung sa Pinas ka manggaling). May instructions dun sa e-mail that you need to follow. 📩 E-mail ng Swedish Embassy in Bangkok: migration.bangkok@gov.se Step 5: Mag-e-mail naman sayo ang Bangkok sa kung ano need mo gawin at dalhin sa Swedish Embassy sa Manila (BGC): 📎 Filled DVisa application form, original passport, signed declaration form, passport sized photo w white background, photocopy of your passport. Once done, you need to contact the Swedish Embassy in Manila to book an appointment. 📩 E-mail ng Swedish Embassy in Manila: ambassaden.manila@gov.se Step 6: Punta ka na sa appointment day mo. Mabilis lang ang process dito, wala pang 5 minutes, kasi tatatakan lang yung photocopy ng passport mo at i-check lang ang documents at ID mo na dala. 📍 Address Embassy sa Manila: 11th Floor, DelRosarioLaw Centre, 21st Drive corner 20th Drive, Taguig 1630, Metro Manila / Landmark: Near the American cemetery Step 7: After mo sa Embassy pwede ka pumunta either sa SM Aura o Market! Market! Para magpadala ng documents sa DHL. 📍 Address ng Swedish Embassy in Bangkok: Migration Section at Embassy of Sweden 140 Sukhumvit Road Bangkok 10110 Thailand Step 8: After 1-2 days mare-receive na ng Bangkok ang documents mo at need mo mag-wait ng approval ng DVisa, usually 1 day to 1 week. Once approved, mag-e-mail ang Bangkok kung paano mo makukuha passport mo. Punta ka sa DHL website then click SHIP then SCHEDULE PICK-UP then follow mo lang yan. Need credit card para sa payment. Once natapos mo na, don’t forget to download yung mga importante (❗️shipment receipt, transport label, & waybill❗️), then e-mail the necessary files to Bangkok.

Step 9: Hintay ka makabalik ang passport mo. Habang hinihintay mo, pwede mo na sabihan ang host mo na magpa-authenticate na ng contract niyo sa Philippine Embassy in Stockholm kasi minsan mabagal yung process na ’to. Kapag tapos na authentication, need nila ipadala sayo yung contract. Mas maganda kung DHL ang gamitin imbis na PostNord.



FOR STEP 10, I WILL UPDATE THIS ITEM IN REAL TIME.
THIS IS DIVIDED INTO MULTIPLE PARTS. Thanks. Step 10: Kapag na-receive mo na ang passport mo from Bangkok at natanggap mo na ang authentucated contract from Sweden, pwede ka na mag-register sa CFO para sa seminar. Tapos, pwede na kayo mag-book ng flight! ✈️
