Harder to get permanent residence in Norway for Thais from 1 September 2017:

 

Thais with low income in Norway should hasten to seek permanent residence before 1 September. After that there will be only temporary residence permits on those with incomes below 238,784 kroner before tax - or those who have received social assistance during the past 12 months.

 

The Norwegian government has adopted new rules for a permanent residence permit that will hit many Thais in Norway, especially those who are not in full time employment. UDI informs however Thailands Tidende that Thais who are married to Norwegians - but do not meet the requirement for permanent residence - still will get a temporary residence permit.

The new requirements were adopted on June 21, but was first  made known  in UDI's website on 11 July.,  The requirements come into force on September 1 this year so Thais with low income in Norway should hasten to seek permanent residence before that date.

The amendments are also a part of  the restrictive measures  which were adopted on 16 June last year, stating the UDI.

 

- Family reunification as before

We asked the acting area director Maria Andersson for Applicants:

- If you do not meet the requirement for permanent residence, you can then apply for a temporary residence, and how long is it?

 - Many in this group have come to Norway through family reunification. Family reunification permits are temporary permits that normally must be renewed after one to three years. The requirements will be no different than would otherwise apply when applying for renewal of its license. One can renew their temporary permits as long as you still meet the conditions for this permit.

- Does the change that Thais who are married to Norwegians living in Norway may risk losing their residence permit and had to leave the country?

 - No. As long as they still meet the requirements for family reunification permit, they will still be able to renew the temporary permit. That's if they intend to apply for a permanent residence permit - and after the drop to seek renewal periodically - that the new requirements are triggered.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Good! Step in the right direction at last - now they will start to get a feeling what it is like having to meet financial requirements - given it is only 1 million Baht, but I see Norway being at the forefront in Europe of tightening the screws on migrants. (They will probably just move to Sweden when it gets too much.

Not only for Thais. Wrong title for this article me think

Youre correct. This new rule applies to all foreigners seeking permanent residency in Norway. 

Should not be a big problem for most. Thai and Philipino immigrants to Norway has nearly the same employment rate as Norwegian women. And in a country where a cleaner in a School makes 1,5 million baht a year (yes you expats are in the wrong country) , the income requirement is achieveable for most, provided they learn the language as all jobs available require a certain lanhuage proficiency. Also tehy have to be in Norway for 3 years on temporary recidency visa before they can even apply for a permanent residency. So they have three years to learn Norwegian and get a job. And should they not meet the requirement all it means is that they will have to show their face at the local police station, hand in a form, and a new temprorary residency will be granted. It takes 5 minutes, and then they have another year to meet the requirement. And failing that they can then just apply for full citizenship.

The fact that if married to a Norwegian, have lived with that Norwegian in Norway, they can apply for full citizenship after only 4 years (for those not married to a Norwegian citizen it is 7 years) , provided they have passed a level 2 language test. 

Anyway, Thai women have a good reputation ammong emplyers in Norway as hard working, and reliable employees, that show up for work and get the job done. Thailand should be proud of all that has made their home here.

And the most of Thai don`t work so if the man die the wife get 75 % of his pensjon fore 6 month that`s it she get anything more (New rules) They most start to work. And if they live in Thailand she or hime get nothing from Norway.

bandito@ You have paid 15% Tax but do not pay tax fore get pension. Then your tax rate will be 37% Tax, like all other Norwegian Sailors who receive pension. You had a choice that was not Norwegian if you would pay Social Tax for and get a pension or not, it was up to you, but you were so greedy that you wanted the most money in your pocket every month. Many Spaniards and from other countries I know who receive full pension from Norway because they paid the same tax as the Norwegian on Norwegian Ships. Greedy man from Spain i think ? You was stupid, You lose about +/-  2000 Euro every mount the rest of your life because you are so greedy.
