Students permit

I need a permit to officially become a student, and to be allowed access to the tarmac at Säve. This is quite complicated in the land of bureaucracy , also known as Sweden.

First of all, I’ll have to complete a medical examination, which costs a bit. Haven’t scheduled an appointment for this just yet. Then I need to file a background check of myself to the Swedish police which they in turn send to the civil aviation authority. Finally a birth certificate needs to be acquired from the tax office. Yes…they handle the national registration, scary! I can apply when this mother of all processes is completed!

Yaaay!
