Discover visa requirements for your trip
Jordanian travellers need a Schengen short-stay (Type C) visa to visit Norway. It must be obtained before departure from the Norwegian mission responsible for Jordan or its authorised visa partner.
Norway is part of the Schengen area, so a Jordanian national travelling there for tourism must apply for a visa before the trip. The visa allows a stay of up to 90 days in any 180-day period and is valid across the whole Schengen area, provided Norway is your main destination. In Jordan the process usually runs through the partner visa centre.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. Jordan is not on the visa-exempt list, so a Jordanian citizen must obtain a Schengen Type C visa for a tourist stay in Norway. This is a short-stay visa valid for up to 90 days within any 180-day period.
How and where to apply
Applications are lodged with the Norwegian mission responsible for Jordan or with its external service provider (VFS Global, BLS or TLScontact, depending on the arrangement), usually in Amman. You create an application through the UDI portal, book an appointment, attend in person for biometrics and hand in the complete file. Norway must be your main destination or first point of entry into the Schengen area.
Documents and fees
Prepare a valid passport, compliant ID photos, travel insurance covering at least €30,000 in medical costs, an accommodation booking, an itinerary, proof of sufficient funds and a return ticket. The visa fee is around €90 for an adult. Confirm the exact amount and accepted payment methods on the official UDI site before paying.
Processing and tips
Processing usually takes 15 to 45 days, so apply several weeks ahead of travel, without exceeding the six-month early-application window. Use the UDI application portal to prepare your file, book your appointment early, and present consistent proof of funds and a coherent itinerary.
Common mistakes
Do not lodge your application at another Schengen country's consulate if Norway is your main destination. Do not underestimate insurance cover, which must reach at least €30,000. Finally, an incomplete file or weak proof of funds are the most common reasons for refusal.
