Do I need a visa for Norway from Haiti?
Discover visa requirements for your trip
Haitian nationals must obtain a Schengen short-stay (Type C) visa before travelling to Norway for tourism. No visa waiver applies to holders of a Haitian passport.
Haiti is not on the Schengen visa-exempt list. A traveller from Haiti wishing to visit Norway for tourism or family must lodge a visa application before departure. The Schengen visa allows a stay of up to 90 days within any 180-day period, and Norway must be your main destination.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. Haitian citizens have no visa exemption for the Schengen Area, of which Norway is part. For a tourist stay you need a Type C visitor's visa. It is valid throughout the Schengen Area but must be requested from Norway when it is your only or principal destination.
How and where to apply
Apply through the Norwegian mission responsible for Haiti or its authorised visa centre (often VFS Global). Since Norway does not always keep a direct mission in Port-au-Prince, check udi.no to find which embassy or partner handles Haitian applications. Book an appointment and attend in person to provide your biometrics.
Documents and fees
Prepare: a passport valid for at least three months beyond your intended departure, a Schengen form, a compliant photo, a round-trip flight reservation, proof of accommodation, evidence of funds, and travel medical insurance covering at least €30,000 for medical care and repatriation. The visa fee is normally €90 for an adult (reduced for children). Confirm the amount on udi.no.
Processing and tips
Processing usually takes 15 to 45 days, and longer in busy periods. File up to six months before travel and no later than 15 days before. Wait for the visa to be issued before buying non-refundable tickets or accommodation.
Common mistakes
Refusals often come from inadequate insurance, applying to the wrong Schengen state (Norway not being the main destination), poorly documented funds, or a passport with too little validity. Book your appointment early, as slots can be scarce depending on where you apply.
