Removals to Norway

Living in Norway vs UK

Moving to another country means a change to absolutely every aspect of your life – from how you shop, to where you socialise, to what you do to relax. As long-standing providers of removals to Norway, we see the differences from the outside. But how do expats experience it in their daily lives?

We asked clients who’d made the move to Norway to compare their experience with that of living in the UK. These are the responses they gave:

Better transport infrastructure than UK

“Norway is geographically challenged by fjords, mountains and sea. Despite that, it’s pretty easy to get around the country by train, plane, bus or car. Public transport is pricey but you can rely on it. And if you live in Oslo, you’re able to walk or cycle most places in the city, or rely on an excellent rail or bus system to get where you want to go.”

Norway has 50% more coastline than UK

“Despite the UK being an island, it just doesn’t compare when it comes to length of coastline. Norway has 25,148 km of stunning coast, and the Hurtigruten ferry offers access to it several times each day. A side product of this natural resource is the fresh fish available – some of the best in the world.”

Coffee is a Norway obsession!

“Norway’s love for coffee is serious – they’re the second biggest coffee drinkers in Scandinavia (Finland takes the top spot) downing nearly 10kg per person each year. It’s got to be good, right? And it is. Norwegians are picky about their coffee, not just the taste, but the whole experience. Coffee shops are places to meet up and hang out, with their own distinct atmosphere and friendly baristas. It’s almost a national obsession. People take a trip to a new city just to check out a trending coffee spot. It’s that kind of dedication that makes Norway coffee culture so unique.”

Shopping is less pleasurable in Norway

A lot of Norway’s food is imported, which makes it pricey. Like, eye-wateringly so. And the supermarkets? You won’t see the massive selection you’d find in the UK. Oh, and alcohol… that’s a whole other story. It’s sold through a state-owned store that has a monopoly, and their hours are… let’s just say, inconvenient. You’ll need to plan ahead if you want a drink with dinner!

Norway is less socially competitive than UK

“Norwegians abide by a social code that means they don’t boast about their wealth or their accomplishments in public. This is thought to deliver a happier society, where people are more focused on their family and their social responsibilities, rather than the acquisition of wealth.”

Schepens has been providing removals to Norway for over a century now, and we always enjoy the opportunity to work and experience this beautiful country. Our aim has always been to create stress-free removals for our movers, so that they begin their new life, in a new country, free from move-related anxieties.

Norway moving guide | Moving to Norway from the UK | Removals to Norway

Over the past decade of the annual World Happiness Report, Norway has consistently featured in the top 10 countries. The reasons include a healthy work-life balance, the low crime rate, a strong sense of community and national trust in government policy. Small wonder then, that working and living in Norway is a popular option for Brits.

If you’re thinking of moving to Norway for work, take a look at our step-by-step guide. Schepens has been moving families to Scandinavia for over 100 years now. We’re specialist providers with a detailed knowledge of the country and an ongoing passion for providing stress-free removals to Norway.

1. Entry requirements and visa

The UK left the EU in 2021, so British citizens now face different entry requirements to Norway.

UK passport holders can spend up to 90 days in Norway, without a visa, in a period of 180 days. If, however, you want to move to Norway for more than 90 days, or permanently, you will need a residence permit.

There are different types of residence permit for Norway. Here are the ones that apply to most movers from the UK:

• Family immigration. If you have family in Norway, or a spouse who is a Norway citizen and is resident in Norway, you can apply for a family immigration residence permit.
• Work immigration. If you have a contract to work in Norway, you can apply for a work immigration residence permit. You will be required to prove that you are a skilled worker, run your own business, have been offered a job, or that you are planning to do seasonal work.

The Directorate of Immigration website offers a full list of residence permit options.

2. Opening a bank account in Norway

One of the first things you’ll need to do is open a bank account with one of Norway’s major banks such as Norges bank, Nordea or DNB ASA. If you’re planning to stay in Norway longer than 3 months, you’ll need a Norway National Insurance number (ID number). These are issued by your local tax assessment office.

3. Finding a job in Norway

You’ll need to have a job in order to be granted residency. The jobs market is highly competitive, and jobseekers who are willing to learn Norwegian stand a better chance in it, as employers prefer hiring people who know the language. It’s worth finding out which occupations are most in demand as these are the areas where you’re most likely to find work.

4. Somewhere to live

It’s a good idea to rent for your first year in Norway, so that you can take your time deciding where you want to put down roots. Cities offer the most choice but tend to be more expensive. Rental deposits are steep; three months’ rent is the normal deposit. It’s also worth checking what’s covered in rental as you’ll normally need to factor in utilities on top of what you pay.

5. Healthcare in Norway

Healthcare in Norway is high quality and affordable. It’s free for young people under the age of 16. In all other cases medical, dental and optician treatments incur a reasonable fee for all treatment, until a financial threshold is reached, at which point treatment costs are covered by public insurance. Being registered with a GP is the gateway to all healthcare services, so finding one needs to be a priority when you arrive.

6. Education in Norway

Norway’s education system is highly regarded and young people are required to attend between the ages 6-16. Public education is free, and all the classes are delivered in Norwegian. There are also a number of international schools operating in Norway. They’re expensive but they offer a UK curriculum and classes are taught in English.

7. The cost of living

Norway is a hugely expensive place to live. In 2022 it is in the top 10 most expensive places in the world to live. The high prices are offset by salaries but it’s worth researching the cost of staples, utilities, and commodities before you arrive, in order to be able to make informed decisions about the amount you need to earn in order to live comfortably.

Working with an experienced removals partner

Many of our clients are managing their first European removal, and the sheer logistical complexity can feel overwhelming. That’s why we appoint a dedicated move co-ordinator to all our movers. This is someone with detailed knowledge of their destination and extensive experience of removals to Norway. They work with you from preparing your no-obligation quotation through to managing the arrival of your goods in your new home.

At Schepens we ship regularly to a range of locations across Norway which means we’re able to offer flexible scheduling, and the option of either dedicated or part load shipping. Every member of our removals team is BAR trained providing a professional and proactive service throughout your move.

Schepens currently move to the following towns in Norway: Oslo, Bergen, Stavanger, Trondheim, Fredrikstad-Sarpsborg, Drammen, Porsgrunn-Skien, Kristiansands, Tromsø, Tonsberg, Ålesund, Haugesund, Sandefjord, Moss, Bodø, Arendal, Hamar, Larvik, Halden and Harstad.

What’s it like working in Norway?

If you love the adventure of working overseas and you’re looking for new opportunities, working in Norway should definitely be on your radar. Whilst oil and gas have traditionally been the Norway industries attracting overseas professionals, their hugely successful tech sector is currently recruiting globally. Quite apart from the exciting job opportunities available, working in Norway achieves top ranking when it comes to a healthy work-life balance. Employees in Oslo take an average of 25 days’ vacation each year, and parents enjoy 23.5 months of paid parental care, which is currently the most generous allowance in the world.

Why the technology sector is thriving in Norway

The Norway tech sector is incredibly attractive to foreign professionals. Its success is driven by a number of key factors that contribute to the appeal of working in Norway:

• Norway attracts the best. The Nordic countries enjoy a high standard of living that attracts international applicants to jobs. As a result, IT businesses in Norway have a distinct advantage when it comes to recruiting the best talent available for their workforce.
• Commitment to gender equality. Norway is recognised for its historic commitment to gender equality. This commitment to equality fosters a diverse and inclusive business environment, further fuelling the growth of the technology sector.
• Strong technological infrastructure. Norway’s ongoing investment in its technological infrastructure plays a crucial role in its emergence as a prominent technology hub. Working in Norway provides access to advanced telecommunications networks, reliable internet connectivity, and a supportive ecosystem for innovation and entrepreneurship.
• Government support and incentives. The Norway government proactively supports the tech sector through their initiatives and incentives. These measures provide funding, favourable business regulations, and tax incentives, which encourages the growth of tech startups and attracts foreign investment.
• Thriving tech ecosystem. Norway demonstrates a clear understanding of the ecosystem required to support a growing industry. Numerous incubators, accelerators, and co-working spaces provide aspiring entrepreneurs and tech professionals with the resources, networking opportunities, and mentorship they need to succeed.

Applying for a visa to work in Norway

Citizens from the UK need a residence permit in order to work in Norway. There are different types of permit you can apply for, dependent on whether you’re entering the country as a skilled worker, a seasonal worker, or a job seeker. If you are looking for work in the tech sector, you would need to apply for a skilled work permit.

Skilled work permit/residence permit

The criteria for a skilled residence permit are as follows:

• Completion of a relevant HE degree or vocational training.
• Relevant experience for your chosen occupation, including education and vocational training.
• A confirmed job offer from an employer in Norway, offering a salary which exceeds the average Norway wage.

Skilled work permit holders can apply for permanent residence in Norway once they have lived and worked in the country for three years. This permit also allows international employees to work in their company’s branch in Norway.

What’s it like working in Norway?

For over a century now, Schepens has been providing removals to Norway for movers who are starting jobs in Oslo, Bergen or Trondheim. A number of them subsequently decide to make Norway their permanent home. We asked them what it’s like working in Norway, on a day-to-day basis?

Working in Norway is better if you know the language

“Most Norwegians I know are fluent in English outside the workplace, but they’re sticklers for speaking Norwegian once the working day begins. There are some exceptions, and English is now being spoken in more workplaces but don’t expect it. I could get by with just English, but I couldn’t express my personality properly until I knew some Norwegian and began to develop friendships.”

You’ll have more freedom over your working hours

“I’ve only worked in a couple of Norway workplaces but it’s noticeable that employees are listened to, and their needs are respected. For instance, since the pandemic, there’s more demand for flexible working. Where I work now there are core hours when you need to be at work, but then there are flexible hours at the beginning and end of the day that you can use to organise school runs etc.”

Office design is amazing

“Fresh air, great views, and a calm environment are all things that are expected in a Norway workspace and I’d happily live in my current workspace, it’s so beautiful! I’ve always worked in environments where people chat and eat and work around the distractions, whereas here, focus is all. The office can feel a bit too quiet at times, I admit, but it’s just a case of getting used to different ways of working.”

Oslo is incredibly diverse

“When I came to work in Oslo, I was expecting an international team to work with (which I have), but what I didn’t expect was the diversity of the city population. Around a third of people living here come from elsewhere, so I immediately felt ‘at home’. I’ve met great people both from Norway and around the globe, and I love living and working in Norway.”

5 of the best places to live in Norway

In the past decade, Norway has consistently ranked among the top 10 countries in the World Happiness Index. Renowned for its low crime rate, enviable work-life balance, and strong belief in political integrity, Norway has earned a remarkable reputation. Consequently, it comes as no surprise that UK professionals seeking to live and work abroad now consider Norway as an appealing option. But where are the best places to live in Norway?

Schepens Removals has been providing stress-free removals to Norway for over a century now and so we’ve got to know very different locations across the country. In this article we provide a brief introduction to the 5 locations most regularly chosen by movers.

1. Oslo – situated on the southern coast at the head of the Oslofjord

As the capital of Norway, Oslo distinguishes itself from its English counterpart with a more relaxed and laid-back atmosphere. With a population of under a million, the city enjoys a less hectic vibe, aided by its picturesque location. Oslo’s waterfront and harbour promenade provide a captivating fusion of natural surroundings, diverse culinary experiences, and iconic architectural marvels.

Being a youthful city, Oslo attracts a diverse and international workforce. It’s no surprise considering that recent surveys have consistently ranked Oslo as a global leader in terms of work-life balance. The city’s major industries revolve around IT, environmental technology, and life sciences, making it a hub of innovation and opportunity.

2. Bergen – located on the western coast of Norway, surrounded by mountains and fjords

Bergen, a quaint port town with a population of less than 500,000, boasts an impressive reputation. Home to the University of Bergen, it thrives as a vibrant urban centre, offering a packed schedule of cultural events throughout the year. Situated on the southwestern coast, Bergen is enveloped by seven breath-taking mountains, adding to its allure.

It’s worth noting that the city has a well-known reputation for its rainfall, and more often than not, we find ourselves getting wet during Schepens’ regular visits to Bergen. However, this lively port exudes a unique charm that is hard to resist. Exploring the winding alleyways of the old docks and discovering the delightful independent shops and exceptional coffee spots is a delightful temptation, making every visit to Bergen an unforgettable experience.

3. Kristiansand – situated on the southern coast of Norway, overlooking the Skagerrak strait

Situated on the southern coast of Norway, Kristiansand, the country’s fifth-largest city is known as the Norway Riviera. The distinction arises from its position at the heart of a region adorned with small islands, idyllic beaches, and laid-back towns.

Remarkably, Kristiansand features a beach right in its centre, which adds to its allure. This picturesque setting enjoys plenty of sunshine during the summer months, making it a magnet for tourists seeking relaxation and natural beauty. Furthermore, the city is a highly desirable place to live, offering excellent schools and a well-developed infrastructure, making it an attractive place to call home.

4. Stavanger – situated on the southwestern coast overlooking the North Sea

With a population of 144,000, Stavanger proudly claims the title of being the best place to live in all of Norway, and it’s not without reason. Situated on the captivating west coast renowned for its untamed beauty, Stavanger offers convenient access to some of the country’s most famous fjords.

While Norway is not lacking in universities, Stavanger stands out with its impressive concentration. Hosting three universities, the town buzzes with energy during term time, creating a vibrant atmosphere. Interestingly, each summer brings about a remarkable transformation as a serene and almost Zen-like calm descends upon Stavanger, lending it a distinct and tranquil ambiance.

5. Tromsø – situated in the north of Norway, surrounded by mountains

For those seeking an exhilarating Arctic adventure, Tromsø is the ultimate destination. Situated above the Arctic Circle, it experiences polar winters, with a period from 21st September to 21st January when the sun remains unseen. Being Norway’s largest fishing port, Tromsø is encompassed by majestic snow-covered mountains.

As the capital of northern Norway, Tromsø boasts a vibrant cultural landscape that harmonises with the mesmerising arctic beauty of the region. The city proudly hosts one of the world’s prominent film festivals annually, attracting global attention. Additionally, Tromsø is home to a renowned university specialising in Arctic research, a symphony orchestra, and a distinguished theatre company, creating a rich cultural tapestry that enhances the city’s allure.

Unveiling the “good life” – how we measure quality of life in Norway

Imagine yourself surrounded by breathtaking fjords, with fresh air filling your lungs and the promise of a healthy, balanced life. This is the dream many hold of Norway, a country renowned for its stunning landscapes and progressive social policies. But for those considering a move, a crucial question arises: how exactly do you measure “Norway quality of life”?

Here at Schepens Removals, we have over a century’s experience moving families, retirees, and professionals to Norway. This means that we understand the importance of looking beyond the picturesque landscapes. Quality of life is a multifaceted concept, and what makes one person thrive might not resonate with another.

That’s why we’ll be taking a detailed look at Norway life, exploring both the objective factors – the measurable aspects like healthcare and cost of living – and the subjective experiences that paint a more personal picture. By combining these viewpoints, we can help you decide if Norway offers the kind of life you want.

Norway quality of life – exploring the key indicators

To understand and evaluate the ‘good life’ in Norway, we’ll be using the key indicators used by the European Commission to assess quality of life across countries. These indicators provide a framework for understanding the different facets of a fulfilling life:

1. Material living conditions
2. Leisure and social interactions
3. Economic security and physical safety
4. Governance and basic rights
5. Natural and living environment
6. Overall experience of life

It’s important, however, to look at all these indicators together, as there can be trade-offs between them. For instance, a high income may come at the sacrifice of less leisure time.

1. Material living conditions in Norway – a balanced perspective

Norway consistently ranks high in overall quality of life, but it’s important to understand the nuances of living costs and income within the country. Let’s break it down:

• Cost of living – a mixed bag. Compared to London, Oslo offers significantly lower rent (over 50% less), making it a more affordable option overall. However, groceries and restaurant prices in Norway tend to be higher. Source: Numbeo
• Taxation – the cost of social benefits. Norway’s famed social welfare system is funded through high taxes. It’s helpful to remember this system provides benefits like universal healthcare, which can offset expenses in the long run.
• Salaries and purchasing power. Norwegians earn impressive salaries, but taxes and living costs can offset those numbers. Still, the overall purchasing power in Oslo remains higher than in London.
• Practical cost considerations. Norway’s colder climate means higher utility costs, especially in winter. Choosing the right location also impacts your monthly expenses, with city centres being more expensive.

2. Leisure and social interactions in Norway – embracing time off and the outdoors

Norwegians are renowned for their emphasis on a balanced lifestyle, where leisure time plays a vital role in their overall well-being. Here’s a glimpse into how this translates into everyday life:

• Work-life balance – a priority. Compared to many other nations, Norwegians enjoy shorter workweeks and generous vacation entitlements. This translates to ample time for relaxation, travel, and pursuing personal interests.
• The great outdoors beckons. With stunning natural landscapes at their doorstep, Norwegians embrace outdoor activities year-round. Hiking, skiing, fishing, or simply spending time in nature are deeply ingrained in the culture.
• Community and connection. While Norwegians may initially seem reserved, they value strong social bonds. Time off is often spent with friends and family, fostering a sense of belonging.
• The importance of Friluftsliv. This Norway term translates to “free air life”, emphasising the profound connection Norwegians feel with nature. It’s a philosophy of recharging and finding joy in the outdoors.

Learning Norwegian will broaden your opportunities to join social circles and partake in activities, enhancing your overall experience.

3. Economic security and physical safety in Norway – a sense of stability

Exceptionally low crime rates – With a low crime index, low homicide rate, and low risk of assaults or robberies, Norway creates a strong sense of safety for its residents. This is supported by statistics like 93% of people feeling safe walking alone at night, far exceeding the OECD average.

Economic stability – While income inequality exists, Norway boasts a high average household net-adjusted disposable income, surpassing the OECD average. In addition, unemployment benefits and social programs offer a safety net, mitigating financial anxieties for residents.

Source: OECD Better Life Index

• Peace of mind. Norway provides an environment where you can feel at ease, knowing that the likelihood of crime is low and that resources are available if you face economic hardship.
• A foundation for well-being. This sense of security allows you to focus on other aspects of life, such as building meaningful relationships, pursuing hobbies, and enjoying leisure time without worry.

4. Governance and basic rights in Norway – trust, transparency, and citizen voices

High democratic satisfaction – Consistently high rates of citizen satisfaction with democracy reflect trust in the system and a belief that it functions effectively. This signifies that people feel heard and believe the system works for them.

Strong welfare state and inclusive services – Norway’s emphasis on providing universal healthcare and social services demonstrates a commitment to the well-being of all citizens. This fosters a sense of equity and belonging.

Integrity and accountability – High levels of public sector integrity inspire trust in institutions. This translates to transparent decision-making and a belief that government works on behalf of the people.

Critical trust – While Norwegians exhibit high trust in government, it’s not blind trust. Citizens hold institutions accountable and expect responsiveness to changing needs and circumstances. This keeps the system dynamic and engaged.

• Voice and agency. Norway’s democratic system promotes a sense that individuals have a say in shaping their society. This sense of agency is vital for well-being.
• Foundation for success. Strong governance, a focus on citizen needs, and high integrity provide a stable foundation for personal freedoms and opportunities to thrive.

5. Balancing progress and preservation: Norway’s environmental dilemma

Norway faces a fundamental dilemma: it’s a global leader in renewable energy and clean technologies yet remains heavily reliant on its status as a significant oil and gas exporter.

This conflict arises from Norway’s substantial fossil fuel reserves and the continued expansion of production, even into environmentally sensitive areas like the Arctic. Furthermore, the nation’s exploration of deep-sea mining raises additional ecological concerns.

This contradiction highlights the challenge of balancing economic interests with sustainability goals, a dilemma that Norway must carefully navigate to maintain its reputation as an environmental frontrunner.

6. Overall life experience in Norway – voices from those who made the move

As a specialist provider of removals to Norway, Schepens has helped countless movers embark on their Norway adventure. We decided to check in with some of our previous clients to hear their firsthand experiences about living in Norway. Here’s what they shared:

A people-first society

“Norway’s strong economy certainly creates stability, but what impressed me most is the culture. People matter here. I no longer see the social problems that made me uneasy back home. That sense of security makes a world of difference.”

Embracing the outdoors

“‘Friluftsliv’ is more than a word, it’s a way of life. Being outdoors, even in harsh weather, is invigorating. It connects you with the landscape in a unique way and does wonders for your mental health.”

Work-life integration

“The workplace flexibility took me by surprise. I feel trusted to design my schedule in a way that benefits both my work and my family life. Meetings outdoors? Why not! It all adds to feeling valued as a whole person.”

Right to roam

“I miss my mates in the UK, but the freedom to explore Norway’s incredible landscapes makes up for it. Hiking, camping, being alone with nature – that right to roam gives me a sense of ownership in this country, even as a newcomer.”

Norway offers a unique blend of social security, a stunning natural environment, progressive workplaces, and a deep respect for individual freedoms. These firsthand accounts provide a glimpse into the quality of life that awaits those who choose to make Norway their home.

Ready to experience the Norway quality of life?
