Death and inheritance
When someone dies, a death certificate is issued by a doctor or hospital authority. Normally, the inheritors decide how the estate (property, money, possessions) should be administered.
Divorce
If you and/or your spouse no longer wish to live together, either or both of you can apply to your county governor’s office for a separation. It is not necessary for both of you to agree on the separation. The county governor will contact your spouse if you apply alone.
Moving
When you move, you must report your new address to the National Population Register (folkeregisteret), at the earliest 31 days before or 8 days after your move. The National Population Register is managed by the Norwegian Tax Administration (skatteetaten).
Having a child
When having a child in Norway, you should be aware of your parental rights and duties. Below, you will find information and services relevant to pregnancy and having a child, including advice about parental responsibility, financial assistance, maternity and paternity leave and how to register the name of a baby.
Access to digital services from the public sector
The general rule is that public agencies in Norway communicate with the citizens in digital form. This will also apply to Ukrainian refugees with temporary collective protection.
MinID
In order to use digital services from Norwegian public agencies, you must have an electronic identification, e-ID, to be able to log in. An electronic identification, like MinID, is an electronic way of proving one's identity on the internet.
Allowance for transportation of the deceased
Norwegian Labour and Welfare Service (NAV)
Allowance for transportation of the deceased is intended to help cover expenses in connection with burial. It is granted when the deceased’s body has to be transported over a certain distance.
