Work
and residence
Work migrants make a positive contribution to the development of the
Norwegian society. Norwegian authorities want to facilitate skilled
foreign workers to be able work in Norway, a country with a low unemployment
rate, high salaries and good working conditions.
Most
foreign workers need a permit to work in Norway. Here you may find information
on the rules and regulations that apply for the different types of work
permits, how you as an employee can apply, and how you as an employer
can employ foreign workers.
Please
note that separate rules apply for citizens covered by the EU/EEA/EFTA
regulations.
