Information about appointments with the police
You must wait until you have arrived in Oslo to register an application online with the UDI and book an appointment with the police.
Unfortunately, there are currently few appointments available at the Oslo Police Department. New appointments will be posted on the UDI portal on an ongoing basis.
We therefore recommend that you book the first available appointment with the police, even if it is more than 3 months after your arrival.
Please note that you can start your studies and stay in Norway, even if you have not been able to meet with the police.
If you are staying in Norway for more than 6 months, you may report Move to Norway before your appointment with the police. Please contact the Tax Administration for more information.
If there are no appointments available, please log on regularly to see if any new appointments have been posted. For any further questions, please contact the Oslo Police Department.
UiO will update our web page and inform students if we receive further information about available appointments from the police.
Please note that Nordic citizens do not have to register with the Police.
