I am an Ukrainian citizen and want to apply for protection (asylum). What do I need to do?


In general, refugees from Ukraine are to register at the National Arrival Centre. It is also possible to register in a few other locations in Norway if they have sufficient capacity at the time to register you there. If you contact the local police, they can help you with transportation so that you can register your application.

If you have fled the war in Ukraine and applied for protection in Norway, it is the immigration authorities who decide whether your application is to be included in a group assessment or whether it is to be assessed individually. Applications that are assessed as part of the group assessment may grant you collective protection, while applications that are assessed individually may grant you protection (asylum) on ordinary terms.
