Right of residence in Norway for EU/EEA/EFTA nationals
If you are a citizen of an EU / EEA / EFTA country, you no longer need to apply for a residence permit, but you must make a registration. You can make a registration online.
If you are an EEA national and have a valid identity card or passport, you have a right of residence for three months in Norway and the right to work. The same applies to members of your family who are also EEA nationals. Family members who are not EEA nationals must have a valid passport and be able to document that they are a member of your household or that they are supported by you.
If you are an employee from Bulgaria or Romania and have not had a residence permit in Norway in the last 12 months, special transitional rules apply. You need to apply for a residence permit then.
