I am applying for upper secondary school, but my residence permit expires before August 2024. Can I get confirmation from UDI that I have applied for an extension of my stay?


No. The government has decided that the collective protection scheme will be extended one more year. Your residence permit will be extended automatically. This means that most people who have received collective protection in Norway will have their permit automatically extended when the current permit expires.

Therefore, you cannot apply to have your residence permit extended and UDI cannot provide confirmation that you have applied for an extension.

The new permit will be valid for one year from the date your previous permit expires.
