There are always people who won’t stick to following the rules, whether out of negligence or pre-meditated desire to pursue a known illegal course. But now things are tougher — not airtight, but tougher (and sloppier) — and have been for several years with at least regard to the Swedish naturalization qualification checks.

Even with residency permits/cards/visas, their non-European passports get stamped when exiting the Schengen area out of CPH/OSL. And that is also the case even at what were the last major Schengen airports of entry/exit that didn’t do so most often for third country nationals with such Swedish cards. And if the applicant doesn’t have reported Swedish salary income (and likely tax) indicating continuous legal presence in the country for the the 3/5 year period, then the naturalization review tends to take longer, and positive decisions for the applicant become less likely. And the submitted passport can become a plus or minus for the applicant based on its issue date/place and the stamp situation of the passport.
