Please note that it's challenging to obtain a part-time job in Norway, especially around campuses in rural areas. There are a limited amount of jobs available for students without knowledge of Norwegian. Therefore you need to have enough money to live on after UDI's requirements without being reliant on getting a part-time job while studying.
EEA/EU Citizens:
- Do not need a work permit to study in Norway
- Can apply for part-time work after registering with the police
Non EEA-/EU Citizens:
If you wish to study or go to school in Norway for more than three months, you must apply for a study permit.
- If you are granted a study permit, you are automatically also granted permission to work part-time for up to 20 hours per week in addition to your studies and full-time during holidays.
- Note: When renewing your study permit, the part-time work permit is not automatically renewed.
- You must document satisfactory progress in your studies in order to continue to work part-time.
You need a tax deduction card in order to work in Norway.
