Residence-and-work permit for highly qualified employment in Sweden, issued by Migrationsverket. It requires a job offer in a qualified role, a salary above the Blue Card threshold and (normally) a completed higher-education qualification. The Blue Card offers favourable family rules and a faster path to permanent residence and EU mobility than the standard work permit.
