Visitor’s visa and residence permit

A visitor's visa allows you to stay in Norway or other Schengen countries for up to 90 days over a period of 180 days. A residence permit gives you the opportunity to work in Norway and to stay for more than 90 days.

Citizens of Iraq (holding a Iraqi passport) need to apply for a visitor's visa to enter Norway. If you plan to stay longer than 90 days, you need to apply for a residence permit to enter Norway.

Applications for visas and residence permits are handled by the Norwegian Embassy in Amman. Please refer to the website of the Norwegian Embassy in Amman for further information.
