Students from EU/EEA countries

EU/EEA nationals are entitled to work, study and live in Norway. Those staying in Norway for more than three months must register. Detailed information about the registration scheme for EU/EEA nationals can be found on the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration (UDI) website.

How the Registration Scheme Works:

  • You must complete the registration no later than three months after your arrival in Norway

  • You only need to register once

  • You must fall into one of the approved categories (student, employee, etc) for the duration of your stay in Norway

  • When you meet the requirements for registering (see requirements below), the police will issue you a registration certificate

Requirements:

  • You have been admitted to an accredited educational institution
  • You are able to financially support yourself and any family members you bring with you to Norway. This can be documented by writing a personal declaration that you have sufficient funds to support yourself.
  • You have private insurance or a European Health Insurance Card

How to Register:

  • Go to Want to apply on UDI's webside
  • Enter the country where you are a citizen
  • Choose the most relevant box (Residence according to the EU/EEA regulations)
