EU/EEA students do not need a work permit, and can work in Norway after they have registered with the police.
Non-EU/EEA students can work 20 hours per week during their first year of study. Beware that when renewing the study permit the part-time work permit is not automatically renewed. To renew the work permit the students have to document satisfactory progress in their studies. Please consult your institution.
Generally, a student residence permit does not cover the right to take employment in Norway. However, if you are granted a study permit, you are automatically also granted permission to work part-time.
