A new proposal from the Swedish government would dramatically raise financial incentives for migrants to return to their countries of origin, with individuals eligible to receive up to SEK 350,000 (€32,000) and families up to SEK 600,000 (€55,000) as part of a broader effort to curb immigration and address integration challenges.
Migration Minister Johan Forssell confirmed the agreement among the coalition parties and emphasized that the program would include strong oversight mechanisms, telling Swedish news agency TT that the government wants to minimize the risk of people exploiting the allowance by coming to Sweden solely to claim the payment.
As reported by the Samnytt news outlet, the proposal also includes a clause requiring full repayment of the grant if the recipient returns to Sweden, regardless of the time elapsed.
The remigration proposal is the latest in a series of measures aimed at reshaping Sweden’s migration and integration policies. It comes amid growing public concern over violent crime, particularly gang-related violence involving individuals with migration backgrounds. Reports have highlighted a surge in homicides and increasingly brazen criminal activity in Swedish cities. Sweden now reportedly records 50 percent more homicides than El Salvador, a country once plagued by gang violence until a sweeping crackdown by President Nayib Bukele.
The Swedish government has framed its remigration policy as one response to what it describes as a decline in social cohesion and the failure of decades of integration efforts.
In March, the Swedish Ministry of Justice also introduced a proposal to tighten citizenship eligibility by raising the minimum income threshold for applicants. Under the draft, migrants applying for citizenship would need to demonstrate an annual income equivalent to three income base amounts, amounting to a gross monthly income of approximately SEK 20,000, or around €1,820.
Sweden proposes higher income requirement for foreigners to acquire citizenship
“Being granted Swedish citizenship is something you should feel proud of. We are tightening the requirements to make it more meaningful and to ensure that those who become citizens have made an effort to become part of our society,” said Forssell at the time.
If approved, the new citizenship rules will take effect on June 1, 2026.
Despite the tough rhetoric from the ruling coalition, which is propped up with votes from the right-wing Sweden Democrats, skepticism persists about the government’s follow-through.
Remix News reported in March how Sweden granted citizenship to 60,000 foreign nationals in 2023, a number that has raised eyebrows among conservative commentators and immigration critics.
In an editorial last month, the newspaper Expressen warned that many of the new citizens had not sufficiently proven their identities, writing, “It is dangerous. Especially considering that citizenship cannot be revoked.”

..typical socialist reaction: throw money at the problem, and hope the problem goes away, or in this case, moves out..
Pay them? Just kick them the fuck out and tell them not to come back. Geez, Sweden, where are your balls? Your viking ancestors would kick your girly asses.
They have NO BALLS. NWO, WEF= every country opened their borders. Now, it’s not turning out how they planned it: “Diversity is our 3rd world country.”
WE TOLD YOU SO! Sweden (& others) is ass-hoe.
Typical White European sense of justice! We reward invaders and terrorists for breaking into our lands and proceeding to rape, murder and plunder NATIVE Europeans.
Until appropriate categories of justice designed to fit the crime, are reintroduced once again, Europeans will continue to be taken for the stupid clowns and soft touches they truly are.
The People must start with overturning ALL human rights laws pertaining to non-Europeans and their advocators, whilst designating such groups as terrorists rather than kowtowing to these genociders of indigenous Europeans.
Next, start holding national governments responsible for crimes committed against indigenous Europeans by Third World invaders.
In the case of the EU, forcibly change the present anti-European cultural trajectory and start making it ONLY about INDIGENOUS European peoples, THEIR human rights and THEIR respective histories and cultures which MUST include the reintroduction of BOTH capital and corporal punishment.
Marxist agitators and their woke comrades, need to be made to run the risk of being arrested and detained indefinitely with no rights.
Invader criminals and their families should be rounded up and held in camps until repatriation back to their own lands unless they are found guilty of rape and/or murder of indigenous Europeans, in which case capital punishment MUST apply.
The only way to stop this is EVERYONE VOTE CONSERVATIVE, then get rid of the Lefty judges trying to stop the deportations.
