Am I allowed to work while waiting for an answer on my application for collective protection?


You are not allowed to work as long as your application for collective protection is still being processed. Nor can you apply for a job while we process your application.

You will only be allowed to work after you have been granted collective protection in Norway.

Please visit the Norwegian Tax Administration (Skatteetaten) (eksternt nettsted) about what to do if you want to work in Norway after being granted collective protection.
