If the person going to visit you, does not have enough money themselves, you can be a financial sponsor for the visitor and/or let them stay with you. To be eligible, you must submit a sponsorship form.
If you are a financial sponsor for more than one person, you must send a separate sponsorship form to each of those who will visit you.
Please note! The sponsorship form can only be used for one entry into the Schengen area. If the applicant has received a valid visa for multiple entries, you will need to complete a new sponsorship form for each visit.
Please note! If the visiting person plans to visit you several times, you must fill out a new sponsorship form for each visit. The sponsorship form can only be used for one entry into the Schengen area.
Providing as a financial sponsor is not the same as guaranteeing that the person visiting you will leave Norway once the visit is over. As the person receiving the visit, you cannot provide this type of guarantee. The immigration authorities will assess whether it is likely that the person who has applied for a visa will return once the visit is over, based on the extent of his/her ties to his/her home country.
If the person going to visit a company or an organization does not have enough money, the company or business in Norway can pay for their stay. A contact person in the company or business must fill out a sponsorship form to do so.
