You must meet one of these two requirements

• You are employed by a company in an EU/EEA country that has a contract with a Norwegian company to carry out an assignment in Norway.
• You are a self-employed person in an EU/EEA country and have a contract with a Norwegian company to carry out an assignment in Norway.

Rights and obligations

• You can take on new assignments while you are in Norway.
• You can bring your family to Norway. They must also register.
• After five years in Norway, you can be granted permanent right of residence

How the registration scheme works

• You can move to Norway and start working right away, but you must register no later than three months after your arrival in Norway.
• You only need to register once, regardless of how long you will be living in Norway. You can also, for example, go from being a student to being employed without having to re-register.
• While you live in Norway, you must belong to one of the residence categories described on this page. You may be an employee, self-employed, family member, student, have your own funds, or be employed by a foreign company. If you are a student or are here on your own funds, you must have insurance.
• If you meet the requirements for registering, the police will issue you a registration certificate.
• Registration is free.
