You said I will need to come through Rwanda as Europeans don't trust anything coming from Nigeria.

How much is the total package (flight and visa fees+accomodation) needed to migrate to Rwanda.

I'm a Web Developer. With experience in JavaScript, PHP and MySQL.

Also I'm currently upskilling myself into Software Development using Android and Python

ICT permits/Work permits
If you are a citizen of a country outside the EU/EEA and Switzerland, employed at a company outside the EU/EEA, and are to work at the company in Sweden, you can get an Intra-Corporate Transfer (ICT) permit. This applies to those who are to work as a manager or specialist or are to get practical training with the company. (When you see posts that says "Country outside EU/EEA and Switzerland, Nigeria & other African countries falls under this categorization).

What this means, is that a Company registered anywhere in the world can employ you and send you to Sweden to work. Now, if you live for four years in a seven year period, you get Permanent Residence just like that. This permit is valid for as little as three months for trainees, or 1-3 for specialists. While there, you might change companies if you desire

An ICT permit gives you as a citizen of a country outside the EU/EEA and Switzerland the right to travel into, stay and work in Sweden at a company that is established in Sweden within the same corporate group as the host company. If you have already been granted an ICT permit by a different EU Member State, but are to work in Sweden, you can get an ICT authorization for long-term mobility.

Change of employer or profession. Good news! Should you for any reason, want to change your employer or profession, then you can look for a new job your self while in Schengen, either in Sweden or any other Schengen. They are all collectively assume to be one territory.
If you get a new job or employer, you can apply for a temporary residence and work permit when you are in Sweden. Your family members who received residence permits as members of your family can also apply for a continued residence permit in Sweden.
Re: Things I Found Out About Sweden! by CalmTravels: 3:34pm On Jul 22, 2023
If you want to continue working in Sweden, you must extend your ICT permit. The application must be made before the current permit expires. The permit can be extended up to three years if you work as a manager or specialist, or up to one year if you are a trainee.

In most cases, you pay a fee to extend your permit.

When you get your visa…

Have enough money that can sustain you for, at least, 4 weeks before you move. Because, it’s not always easy in a new country. You don’t know how the system works and will be discomforted for a while. So prepare well.

If you meet people from your country, they will be more than willing to help you settle down. But they will disappear if you can’t even pay for your meals. Yes, they will disrespect once they found out you are in dire. Best is always to avoid them & Arabs initially. Maybe when you have discovered stuffs yourself and have balance a bit you can socialize. They will cause you the most depression. I understand most of their excuse: Nobody abroad needs more bills and extra luggage. They have plenty headache already, don’t add to it. That's hogwash though, assistance sometimes isnt above money but direction or place holder. However you that is japing should Come prepared.

If you’re going on a student visa, use Social Media to look up other international students in the school and people living around that town… connect with them and ask relevant questions. They are more likely to help.

You can also contact the office of international student affairs in the school and request them to connect you with other students from your home country. They will do this without hesitations.

The people you meet first when you enter a country matters a lot. Be careful the details and private information you share. Be open so people can relate with you but be smart. People send information. Yes, people do lots of informal side hustle to make up short falls in the living expenses.

Be prepared to learn and unlearn. Some of the things you value in your home country is nothing abroad, and vice versa. One thing i must warn you, be original. People will try to force you to live a fake live of you have made it, because almost every immigrant i run into do it, especially blacks & Arabs. I had this experience of an African Arab trying to impress it that he is someone important, while me i am one black monkey struggling to cop. He was shocked how most German babes & guys flock to me. Me i dont dress well ohhh, but when you come close you go understand, as i fit spend $200 on dinner for any person head, boy or girl. One white politely fall his hand by asking if he has started working there, he quickly retorted he is *Volunteering****** Lol. Me body just sweet me small. Since then the Morroccan dey avoid me like say na me ask am wetin he dey do for the facility. Guy na cleaner he dey do! No form pass your self. No follow other immigrants form pass your self, this is a real live story. I kept my originality and made useful Connects citizens of Norway, Austria, Germany & Switzerland. People can smell fake from a long distance.

Land in a popular airport if it’s your first time. You may have a connecting flight to airport closest to your destination, but it’s better to land in a popular airport.

Port of Entry is where your fate will be decided. Your visa is just valid for you to get to that port of entry. Always dont look at the immigration officer. Focus on something else as if you dont give a shit about their fucking country. Dont appear desperate to come to their country. If he is a Conservative he will pour his frustrations of Left politics on you!

Carry African food. Don’t worry about rice and noodles , you will find them abroad. Most processed foods are cheap.

Accommodation. If possible, sort it before moving. But you can sleep in hostels for a few days as you look for a place. Be sure about where you will sleep that first day of arrival. Now, there are lots of low priced hostels....not hotel for you to even sleep for one week. Plan your way & take over your hustle.

Agents or your friend that said they would pick you from the airport may switch off their phones when you land or they’re busy, so plan for that emergency. They usually do. When ever you guys reconnect, they pop up the excuse with a smile and expect you to forget it.

Lastly, make sure you appease your village people, all the local demons wey dey una village........Lol

Calm Travels wish you all the best in your travels.

If you find this post interesting, share, tell a friend that we can help them migrate from Africa to Europe *Legitimately*

Malmo is better in my opinion.

Just 30 mins away from Copenhagen, and it's warmer than Stockholm. Life in Malmo is also fabulous. it is lively and awesome.

And yes I agree with you. Sweden can straighten all the shit away from your life. If you have a legal residence there, then materially, you are set for life.

The things most people worry about have been taken care of. You will be paid to study, so you don't disturb yourself with hustle. Your rent paid for, with free healthcare, doesn't matter if your sickness needs 1M USD per month for medicine.

Safe, civilized, and beautiful., and exceptionally clean.

That should be mainly in tech. But why survive when you can thrive by learning the language? Una go enter country where English is not spoken begin dey ask if one can survive with only English or complain say they don't know how to speak English. Una no read the country before una apply to am? Shey if the person learns Swedish, he or she can integrate fully and enjoy his/her stay?

BTW, Swedish universities are way more expensive than British or Candian counterparts. Similar to US levels. Scholarships are extremely competitive, and student visas are hard to come by. No be 90K Nigerians wey apply for one kind scholarship the other month? grin

They are even mulling laws to curtail migration because of wetin Arabs don cause for Stockholm. They are learning from their Danish brothers.

Sharone21....come see racism and xenophobia in one piece grin grin. Isn't this what I said to you about Botswana and Namibia yesterday?
