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.
Applications for visitor’s visas and residence permits for Norway are handled by the Norwegian Embassy in Bangkok, Thailand.
Malaysian citizens, travelling on a Malaysian passport, do not need a visitor’s visa. However, you need a residence permit in order to stay more than 90 days.
Schengen visa applications and residence permit applications must be submitted through VFS Global in Kuala Lumpur. It is mandatory to book an appointment.
