I have not received an answer regarding my application for individual protection. Can I apply for a different type of permit in Norway?

You can apply for a different type of residence permit if you meet the standard requirements for applying while in Norway. You may be required, for example, to have had the legal right to stay with skilled-worker status or to have had a valid residence permit over the previous 9 months.

It is your responsibility to familiarise yourself with the relevant residence permit types that you can apply for and whether you are allowed to apply while in Norway. You will find this information by choosing which type of residence permit you wish to apply for and then providing answers to the questions we ask on our webpage.
