Do I need a visa for Norway from Uzbekistan?
Discover visa requirements for your trip
Uzbekistani citizens need a Schengen short-stay (Type C) visa to visit Norway as tourists, obtained before departure.
Norway is part of the Schengen Area without being an EU member, and Uzbekistan is not visa-exempt, so an Uzbekistani traveller must apply for a Type C tourist visa through the Norwegian authorities. The visa allows up to 90 days within any 180-day period across the whole Schengen Area.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. An Uzbekistani passport holder must obtain a Schengen short-stay (Type C) visa to visit Norway. Norway must be your main destination or your first point of entry into Schengen for the application to fall to the Norwegian authorities. The visa covers up to 90 days in any 180-day period.
How and where to apply
Applications are submitted to the Norwegian consulate or its authorised outsourcing partner (VFS Global, BLS or TLScontact) in Uzbekistan. You will typically register the application through the UDI portal, book an appointment, attend in person for biometrics (fingerprints and photo) and hand in your file. Check udi.no for the responsible centre.
Documents and fees
Prepare a valid passport (at least three months beyond your planned departure and two blank pages), a recent photo, a return flight reservation, proof of accommodation, evidence of funds and travel medical insurance covering at least €30,000. The visa fee is typically €90 for an adult. Verify the exact amount and full checklist on udi.no.
Processing and tips
Processing usually takes 15 to 45 days. Apply no earlier than six months before travel and at least 15 days ahead. Book your appointment early, as slots are limited in peak season. A coherent itinerary and clear proof of funds strengthen your application.
Common mistakes
Refusals often come from inadequate insurance, unconfirmed bookings, a passport with too little validity, or applying to the wrong Schengen country. Do not apply for a Norwegian visa if you will actually spend more time in another Schengen state. Always verify current requirements on udi.no before you travel.
