Doctor / physician jobs in Norway

Residence permit for skilled workers: Needs a concrete, normally full-time job offer from an employer in Norway that requires skilled-worker qualifications; the employer confirms the offer online first. Degree-level permits last up to 3 years at a time, vocational ones up to 1 year, and you can apply for permanent residence after 3 years. Regulated jobs such as health personnel also need authorisation.

Doctors trained outside the EU/EEA must, within 3 years, reach Norwegian at B2, pass a professional test at the University of Oslo, and take courses in national subjects and medicines handling.
