Family immigration
Last updated: 16/03/2011 //
If you have a family member living in Norway, or you want to set up a family with a person living here, you can apply for a family immigration permit to come and live together with him or her.
To be granted family immigration with a person living in Norway (sponsor), you must be related to or have plans to set up a family with him or her. Whether you are entitled to such a residence permit depends, among other things, on which citizenship or permit your sponsor hold and whether he or she can provide housing and support you financially.
Please contact the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration (UDI) for more information on the different types of family immigration permits, requirements and procedures for family immigration applications.
