Maximum tenancy stay
You can stay with us for a maximum of six years. The housing period constitutes the total rental period for all rental agreements that you have had at Stockholms studentbostäder.
After living for a total of about 5.5 years, you will be blocked with us and you will receive a termination of tenancy. This means that with this block you can no longer apply for a free term, sublet your accommodation, change roles on the rental agreement or book a new accommodation within Stockholms studentbostäder. You will be notified when you have been blocked. This block is permanent and also applies if you have received an approved exemption.
