What happened

Well supportedReported by 10 independent outlets

Sweden's parliament approved a new law that permits authorities to revoke residency permits from immigrants based on a range of non-criminal conduct. This legislation, known as the "good behaviour" law, applies retroactively to existing permits and covers future applications. The law was proposed by Migration Minister Johan Forssell and is part of a broader immigration policy tightening by the Swedish government and the Sweden Democrats.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The measure allows for permit revocation if immigrants accumulate unpaid debts, fail to pay taxes, perform undeclared work, or maintain links to extremist organizations. Civil Rights Defenders criticized the law, noting that it does not provide a detailed list of behaviors that could trigger a review.
