Working Holiday in Norway for Argentines (2026)
Requirements, application steps and travel preparation.
Step 1
Check requirements and prepare your language skills
Passport and nationality
Argentine passport and residence in Argentina
Argentine citizenship is required, not residence alone. You must reside in Argentina when applying and hold a valid passport; confirm remaining-validity requirements in the current checklist.
References: ARNO1
Language requirement
Language evidence still needs confirmation. Norwegian may help daily life; check each course’s entry conditions.

Explore Norwegian courses →Documents and previous participation
First participation and application preparation
Prepare passport, residence evidence, funds, departure and insurance. Check the current UDI/VFS list for forms and additional documents. Dependants need their own authorisation; this permit does not create a family-reunification right.
References: ARNO1
Three months of living funds, plus travel
Initial living funds and the flight are separate items. Before finalising your budget, confirm UDI’s current amount and allow for accommodation, transport and paperwork.

Language courses · commercial service
Prepare your language skills before travelling.
Through ViveCampus, you can get quotes for language courses with international-student discounts. Offers may vary by your country of origin and destination. Request a personalized quote to confirm available discounts and the final price. Booking a course does not guarantee a visa.
Step 2
Apply for the Working Holiday visa
Annual quota
Up to 300 per year
Annual allocation for Argentines under the agreement, not remaining places.

Application dates
Confirm the next application round and filing channel with UDI and VFS. No exact opening day or time is established here.
Visa fee
An application fee applies. Confirm the current amount and possible VFS charges before paying; no figure is confirmed in this guide.
How to prepare your application
Check UDI’s Argentine category and follow the embassy-designated VFS filing channel. The current checklist, fee and updated funds remain pending direct review; an old instruction sheet does not confirm current requirements.
- Confirm requirements and the current checklist with UDI and the VFS channel linked by the embassy.
- Follow official instructions to register, pay and book submission in Argentina. Do not use another nationality’s process.
- Submit documents through the stated channel. Keep confirmation and respond to any additional authority requests.
- Wait for the decision. If approved, check the entry deadline and arrange registration on arrival.
The current processing period is unconfirmed because the UDI category requires manual review. Appointment waiting time and the decision are separate stages. ARNO1

Step 3
If my visa is approved
Wait for a written decision. Before booking, check your entry deadline and the conditions of the permit you receive.
Length of stay
Up to 12 months from entry
The agreement requires entry within six months of the grant and registration within seven days after arrival. Also follow your decision letter. This stay does not count towards permanent residence.
Step 4
Get ready for my trip
Funds for your stay
You need funds for the first three months and a return flight or money to buy it. The current amount and evidence required by UDI still need confirmation. Keep this requirement separate from your total travel budget.
References: ARNO1
Travel insurance
Adequate medical insurance
The embassy requires medical insurance. Confirm coverage, duration and accepted evidence before buying; another country’s minimum is not substituted.

My preparation checklist
Mark what you have reviewed. This helps you organise your trip; it is not a requirements assessment.
These marks are not saved or sent. Reloading clears them.
Step 5
Start my Working Holiday in Norway
Work conditions
Up to 6 months with the same employer
Work may supplement your travel funds. The limit is per employer, not six months of total work; the agreement does not permit permanent employment.
Study during your trip
Courses or training up to 3 months
Article 4 permits study or training up to three months during the Norwegian stay. Confirm that your course fits the permit before paying.

Treaty Article 3 requires registration within seven days after entry. Book a police appointment through UDI My Applications or the confirmation email, and check location and documents against your decision. Police attendance requires an appointment; ask the authority if none is available within the deadline rather than assuming an exemption.

Your first days
- Plan your transfer and keep your accommodation address available offline.
- Before accepting a job, check the contract, work conditions and relevant local formalities.
- If studying, confirm your timetable and location with the school. Save support contacts and review your budget.
