Am I entitled to priority from the Embassy?
No, the Embassy does not decide on priority for a case. When you schedule an appointment you will be given the first available appointment. The Swedish Migration Agency can in exceptional cases decide that a case is prioritized.
I have an appointment with you, but I would like you to transfer my case to another embassy.
Contact the Embassy where you want your interview to take place. When they confirm that you have been scheduled an appointment with them, they will arrange for your case to be transferred there. At the same time the appointment at the Embassy in Riyadh will be cancelled. You can only have an appointment in one Embassy.
