Waiting time – applications for Norwegian citizenship
The police do not decide whether someone is given Norwegian citizenship. Your application will therefore be forwarded to the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration (UDI).
From that time, the UDI's waiting times apply.
We update the information on this page once a month.
