mottagningsbevis

Mottagningsbevis is a Swedish term referring to a document that confirms a person has been received into a public reception program or facility. The concept is mainly used within public administration, for example in contexts such as asylum reception or municipal social services. It serves as temporary confirmation of reception during the initial phase of processing or placement.

The form and content of mottagningsbevis can vary by region and context, but it typically includes basic identifying information such as the person’s name and, when available, personal identity number or date of birth. It may also specify the name of the reception unit or center, the date of arrival, and the period for which the document is valid. It is not a permanent personal identification document, nor does it in itself establish legal status.

Purpose and use: mottagningsbevis functions as practical evidence that the person has been admitted to a reception system and is eligible to access certain services during the reception period. This can include arrangements related to housing, meals, health care, schooling, and other social services, as well as coordination with authorities and service providers.

Issuance and authority: The document is typically issued by the relevant municipality, reception center, or public agency responsible for the reception program. Because policies and terminology can differ between regions, the exact form and implications of mottagningsbevis may vary.
