Permit B (Resident Foreign National)
This is the standard residence permit, typically issued for five years for EU/EFTA citizens and one year (renewable) for non-EU/EFTA citizens. It's the primary goal for anyone looking to establish long-term residency
Permit L (Short-term Resident)
Issued for a specific purpose, usually for up to one year. It's often a first step for non-EU/EFTA nationals before obtaining a Permit B.
