Joining the Swedish Armed Forces

Swedish citizenship is a requirement for joining the Swedish Armed Forces. At present this applies to both military and civilian service. A check of public records is carried out prior to any appointment.

Out of a total of around 18,000 persons employed in the Swedish Armed Forces, almost 7,000 are civilians. The remainder are officers and other ranks in the armed services.

Employment opportunities in the Swedish Armed Forces cover numerous job categories and we can offer a wide variety of work environments throughout Sweden and internationally.
