Limited capacity regarding appointments available for EEA-registrations
Oslo police district currently has very limited capacity in regards to appointments for EEA-registrations. The Police notes that an EU/EEA-citizen in any case will have legal residence in Norway beyond three months if he or she exercises EEA rights. A right of residence according to EEA law beyond three months is not conditional on a registration certificate being issued by the authorities. Further information about the registration certificate in provided on the website of the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration (UDI), see https://udi.no/en/word-definitions/registration-certificate-for-eueea-nationals/

New solution for appointment booking and attendance
Have you applied but not booked an appointment before 27 May?
If you have applied online with UDI and/or received a permit, but have not booked an appointment with the police before 27 May 2024, you must contact the police to get help with booking av appointment. You cannot book an appointment online. In your application, you will find which police station or office you should contact.
If you must book an appointment yourself through the police's appointment portal and there are no available slots, it is important that you keep checking the portal! The police will continually release appointments as we have capacity.

You will not receive any other answers if you contact us by phone og e-mail, than if you search for general information on the police website.

Due to our long case processing times and waiting times to get an appointment, there are now especially many people who want their case processed faster. However, very special circumstances are required for your case to be moved to the front of the queue. For the police to be able to assess a documented request for priority, you MUST follow UDI`s guidelines for priority on UDI.no: Can your case be moved to the front of the queue? (be given priority)
