Hello :)

I'm medical doctor from non EU (Serbia). I hopefully plan to get a license to practice as MD in Sweden.

If I understood correctly, it takes passing medical knowledge exam and doing internship afterwards.

I read that getting an internship does not bring an automatic residency/work permit.

In what way can I get permit if I wish to go trough this process of getting a license?

Thank you in advance.

What reason make you want to move to Sweden and work?

You should talk with the swedish migration board (migrationsverket.se) - you should know they are really though - but there are some exemptions which make it easier.

However you should consider learning swedish before coming here - because it's a requirement for the employers and if you're going to work here, it's very important for the patients safety and your practicing.
