Visitor's visa

A visitor's visa allows you to stay in Norway or other countries in the Schengen area for up to 90 days over a period of 180 days.

Citizens of Nigeria must apply for a visitor's visa.

If you plan to visit more than one Schengen country in the course of one trip, or if you plan several separate trips within a period of two months, you must submit your application to the embassy or consulate of the country that is your main destination based on the length of your stay, or the purpose of stay.

If you plan to visit several Schengen countries and the main destination cannot be determined, you must submit your application to the embassy or consulate of the country that is your first point of entry to the Schengen area.

For individuals who are travelling with or visiting a close family member who is an EU/EEA citizen, simplified procedures apply. A standardised checklist for the documents required in this situation can be found here.

 

Norway has resumed handling Schengen or C visa applications on behalf of Iceland.

Starting 1 December 2021, the VFS Global application centres in Nigeria that represent Norway will receive applications from residents of Nigeria who wish to visit Iceland. The Royal Norwegian Embassy in Accra, Ghana, will handle these applications.
