I have an education and want to work in Norway. What type of residence permit can I apply for?
If you have completed vocational training or a degree in higher education, you can apply for a residence permit as a skilled worker. You must normally either have been offered a job in advance or run your own business.
To obtain a residence permit as a skilled worker, you must meet a number of requirements. For one thing, the work you are going to do must require qualifications as a skilled worker; you must be qualified to do the work required of you.
