Why applications on this route get refused

  • Job doesn't require skilled-worker qualifications

    The permit is for a job that requires the qualifications of a skilled worker, completed higher education, vocational training, or matching work experience.

    How to avoid it: Check that your job description and your education or experience documents clearly match a skilled-worker role before you apply.

  • Pay or working conditions below what's normal in Norway

    If your pay and working conditions are poorer than what's normal in Norway for your occupation, the application doesn't meet the requirement.

    How to avoid it: Check your offer against the collective agreement for your sector, or against UDI's published salary thresholds if there's no collective agreement.

  • Position not full-time

    The job must normally be full-time; UDI accepts a position of at least 80%, but less than that does not meet the requirement.

    How to avoid it: Confirm your offer of employment states at least an 80% position.

  • Documents missing from your personal checklist

    UDI asks you to hand in every document on your personal checklist together with your application. Missing papers make it harder for UDI to check your case.

    How to avoid it: Go through your checklist line by line after submitting the online form, and hand in every document listed.

Every report is personal: a document check is built from one person's own answers and documents, so two people on this route can get different results. Run your own check rather than relying on a friend's or relative's; each person is responsible for their own application.
