How this eligibility check works

It asks what you want to do in Norway - work, study, join family, visit, invest or settle - and matches your answer against all 22 Norway routes in our directory, then shows the routes that fit, what each one costs, how long it takes and whether it leads to permanent residence.

What it can tell you

• Which Norway visa categories match your purpose, and which are closed or capped.
• The indicative government charge and processing time for each one.
• Whether a route is temporary, or leads to permanent residence.
• The specific requirements that most often decide the outcome - English, skills assessment, sponsorship, funds or a job offer.

What it cannot tell you

It is a preliminary match, not a decision and not immigration advice. It cannot see your history, your documents or your character and health circumstances, and only the UDI can decide a visa. Figures shown are indicative and change - the official source is udi.no.
