anställningsintyg

Anställningsintyg, often translated as employment certificate or letter of employment, is a document issued by an employer to an employee in Sweden. It serves as formal confirmation of the employment relationship between the two parties. The primary purpose of an anställningsintyg is to provide official verification of employment details for various third-party needs.

Typically, an anställningsintyg will include essential information such as the employee's full name, personal identification number, the employer's company name and organization number, the start date of employment, and the employee's job title or position. It may also specify the type of employment, such as permanent or temporary, and sometimes the working hours or whether the employment is full-time or part-time. The document is usually signed by an authorized representative of the employer.

This document is frequently requested by banks for loan applications, by social insurance agencies, by housing providers when renting an apartment, or by other potential employers during a recruitment process. It acts as proof of income and employment status, helping to establish credibility and facilitate transactions or applications that rely on such information. An anställningsintyg is considered a standard document in Swedish employment practices.
