I am under 18 years of age and from a country where a visa is required to enter Norway. Can I apply for family immigration while in Norway?

As a minor from a country where a visa is required for Norway, you may in certain cases be allowed to apply in Norway if you apply for family immigration with your parents as your reference persons.

You must be staying legally in Norway (for example, you already have a valid visa for Norway or another Schengen country), and

• both your parents are in Norway or
• you have one parent in Norway whose sole parental responsibility has been documented or
• you have one parent in Norway who is part of a parental responsibility agreement concerning you, and you have consent from the parent not living in Norway.
