A new government ordinance was published which increases the repatriation grant as from January 1, 2026.
The grant will be increased to SEK 350,000 per adult and SEK 25,000 per child with a maximum amount of SEK 500,000 for spouses or cohabitants and SEK 600,000 per household.
Information campaigns on the repatriation grant will be launched by the Swedish Migration Board to raise awareness among those who may want to leave Sweden voluntarily.
Refugees, resettled refugee, those in need of alternative protection and those with resident permits due to extremely painful circumstances, among others, are eligible.
