Family immigration with an EEA national
If you are a family member of an EEA national living in Norway (sponsor), three different options are available to you.
Which alternative you fall under depends on your and your sponsor’s citizenship, and whether the sponsor has a residence permit in Norway pursuant to the general regulations or he/she has a right of residence pursuant to the EEA regulations.
As a rule, family members of EEA nationals are included in the registration requirement for EEA nationals (registration certificate). However, some people must still apply for a residence card as a member of an EEA national's family, or apply for family immigration pursuant to the general regulations (residence permit).
