Section 112. Right of residence for more than three months for EEA nationals

An EEA national has a right of residence for more than three months as long as the person in question
  1. a.
    is employed or self-employed,
  2. b.
    is to provide services,
  3. c.
    possesses sufficient funds to provide for himself or herself and any accompanying family members, and is covered by a health insurance policy that covers all risks during the stay, or
  4. d.
    is enrolled at an approved educational institution. The condition applies that the primary purpose of the stay is education, including vocational education, that the person in question is covered by a health insurance policy that covers all risks during the stay, and that a statement is issued that confirms that the person in question possesses sufficient funds to provide means of subsistence for himself or herself and any accompanying family members.
A foreign national who resides in the realm in accordance with the first paragraph, (a), but who ceases to be employed or self-employed nevertheless retains status as an employee or a self-employed person if the person
  1. a.
    is temporarily incapable of work as a result of illness or accident,
  2. b.
    provides documentary evidence of involuntary unemployment after having had paid work for more than one year, and has registered as a jobseeker with the Norwegian Labour and Welfare Service,
  3. c.
    documents to be involuntarily unemployed following the expiry of a fixed-term employment contract of less than one year’s duration or the person has involuntarily lost the job during the course of the first 12 months, and has registered as a jobseeker with the Norwegian Labour and Welfare Service, or
  4. d.
    commences a course of vocational education. Unless the person in question is involuntarily unemployed, the status as an employee or a self-employed person under the first paragraph, (a), will only be retained as long as the course of vocational education is related to the person’s previous work.
In cases as mentioned in the second paragraph, (c), status under the first paragraph, (a), lapses after six months.
The King may issue regulations containing further provisions, including on what are to be considered sufficient means under the first paragraph, (c), on approved educational institutions, and on requirements relating to the statement mentioned in the first paragraph, (d).
