How do I appeal the decision?


You can appeal the decision and ask to stay in Norway while the appeal is processed. You must appeal within three weeks of receiving your decision. If you wish to make an appeal, you must send the appeal to UDI by post. You can either fill in the form attached to the decision, or write an appeal yourself. The appeal must be written in Norwegian or English.

The appeal is sent to:

Utlendingsdirektoratet
PO Box 2098 Vika
0125 Oslo.

If UDI does not change the decision, we will forward the appeal to the Immigration Appeals Board (Utlendingsnemnda, UNE). If UDI or UNE changes the decision and grant the appeal, you may have the right to have your legal expenses covered, for example, if you have used a lawyer.

You have the right to see the documents in your case.
