Where can I register my application for protection?

As of 15 July 2024, anyone applying for protection must go to Råde to register their application at the National Arrival Centre. 

The National Arrival Centre is located in Råde municipality, approximately 116 km south of Oslo Airport (Gardermoen). The nearest border crossing point is Svinesund on the E6 motorway, while the nearest airport is Oslo Airport (Gardermoen). 
 
Address: Mosseveien 58, 1640 Råde. 
 
Contact the police at the National Arrival Centre when you arrive for further assistance.

We cannot offer you a place to stay until you have registered at the National Arrival Centre.

You have to make your own travel arrangements to the National Arrival Centre, which means that you will have to pay for and organise your transportation to the centre. Children travelling alone (unaccompanied minor asylum-seekers) and others in particularly vulnerable situations will be able to get help to travel to the National Arrival Centre. Exceptions can also be made for anyone whose life or health is at risk.

You can choose whether or not you wish to stay at the National Arrivals Centre or in an asylum reception centre. You have to cover your own costs if you choose to stay in private accommodations.
