Can I travel abroad when living in Norway?
After you have arrived in Norway and received your residence card, you can travel in and out of Norway as long as your residence permit lasts. For most temporary residence permits, there are requirements regarding the amount of time you must spend in Norway. You can read more about such requirements and whether they apply to you in your decision letter.
You can visit other Schengen countries for up to 90 days.
You must have your passport/travel document (reisebevis) and your residence card when travelling.
If you have been granted protection, you are not allowed to travel back to your home country.
Are you going to apply for a permanent residence permit later?
Long-term stays abroad can have implications on any future application for a permanent residence permit. More information about permanent residency .
