Which type of permit should I apply for?


As long as the duty to return to Ukraine is suspended, you as a Ukrainian citizen may apply for all types of permits from Norway. UDI will process all applications that Ukrainians submit from Norway due to the situation in your home country. Usually, applying from Norway will not be taken into consideration.  

If you have a valid residence permit in another safe country, where it is possible to return, we will not accept your application for a residence permit from Norway now.  

If you apply for protection and are granted collective protection, you can still apply for other types of residence permits.

Please consider which residence permit may be relevant for you to apply for. If you have family here, you may apply for family immigration. Another option may be a work permit. Please consider what you want to apply for.
