Most applicants need continuous residence with permits valid for at least one year, and you generally must also hold or qualify for a permanent residence permit.
The standard route requires you to have lived continuously in Norway on residence permits, each valid for at least one year, and you normally need a permanent residence permit or to meet its requirements at the time you apply.
Different and sometimes shorter periods apply to specific groups, and longer periods can apply to those who hold a permit on protection (asylum) grounds. Because the calculation of your residence time is detailed, it is worth checking your exact permit history against UDI's rules before applying.
