I have a residence permit as a skilled worker and have an employer in Norway. Can I work on a freelance basis?


No, if you have a residence permit as a skilled worker with an employer in Norway you cannot take work as a freelancer.

With a residence permit as a skilled worker who is employed in Norway, you are not allowed to:

  • conduct business activity / run a business
  • work as a freelancer
  • carry out assignments for clients
