Normally, if someone is ill, they need to provide a doctor's note to their employer from the eighth day of their absence. However, when the coronavirus pandemic hit, the government temporarily removed this requirement and made some adjustments to the sickness benefit system.<\/p>\n

Some time ago, the government announced that certain coronavirus-related measures in the health insurance sector would be extended until 31 December 2020. One of the measures was that the requirement for a doctor's certificate would be postponed from day eight to day 15.<\/p>\n

The changed rules came into effect on 1 November, and it is important to be aware of them. This is because the rules differ depending on when you fell ill.<\/p>\n

If the first sick day occurred before 1 November 2020, F\u00f6rs\u00e4kringskassan will delay requesting a doctor's certificate for the period between day 15 and 21. This applies regardless of whether you are employed, seeking employment, or on parental leave.<\/p>\n

However, if the first day of sickness is 1 November or later, the Swedish Social Insurance Agency will require a doctor's certificate from day 15 of the sickness period.<\/p>\n

The rules for those taking sick leave have also changed from 1 November. For parents who are at home with a sick child, a doctor's note will be required from 1 November if the child is sick for eight days or longer.<\/p>\n
