🇳🇴 Norway · Citizenship
Naturalization and citizenship-by-investment: residence years, language and civics tests, dual-citizenship rules, and multi-passport planning.
Norwegian citizenship is decided under UDI rules and generally depends on lawful residence, identity, language/social-studies requirements and conduct. Norway allows dual citizenship; UDI says applicants do not need a separate dual-citizenship application.
- Dual citizenship is allowed, but the other country’s law can still matter.
- Residence-period rules differ for ordinary applicants, Nordic citizens and some family cases.
- Use UDI’s personalised citizenship guide before filing; this is legal-status information, not advice.
