Immigration formalities
Immigration formalities
This page and its contents applies to students in Trondheim only.
As a new resident in Norway, there are some formalities to take care of, which entails booking appointments with relevant authorities. NTNU manages joint booking of these appointments with authorities for our students (police appointments, tax authority appointments and tuberculosis screening). You can get more detailed information by completing your Arrival Registration.
All students must book their appointments via NTNU's booking pages, unless otherwise stated on the booking page.
You must have activated your NTNU account in order to book any appointments.
Police appointment
Students staying more than 3 months must register with the Directorate for Immigration (UDI).
These appointments are conducted at the local police station. Book your appointment via the appropriate button below.
Tax Authority appointment
Students staying more than 6 months should book an appointment with the Tax Authority (Skatteetaten) to get a national ID number to access public services.
Students who will work in Norway must also book an appointment, to get a temporary ID number (you must have a signed job contract).
Tuberculosis screening
Students from countries with a high occurrence of tuberculosis must complete a (free) mandatory tuberculosis screening.
If you are unsure whether you need to complete the screening, check if your country qualifies.
