I am waiting for an answer on my application. Can I go on holiday abroad while waiting?
No, your case will be dismissed if you leave Norway.
If you travel without a valid passport or residence card, you may run into difficulties at the airport or other border crossings. You may experience problems trying to travel into another country and when trying to travel back to Norway.
Norwegian authorities cannot provide any assistance to help you to return to Norway if you travel abroad and have difficulties returning.
