Where can someone apply for asylum in Sweden under the rules in October 2026?
Correct answer: Inside Sweden or at its border
An asylum seeker must be in Sweden or at its border. Migrationsverket, the Migration Agency, assesses protection needs individually; the right to apply does not mean automatic approval.
