Applying for a Dutch passport or identity card if you live in Norway

You must prove that you are legally resident in Norway. You can do this by providing one of the following documents:

• a digital or paper extract from the population register (utskrift av registrerte opplysninger). You can apply for one via the Norwegian population register website.
• if you also have Norwegian nationality: a valid Norwegian passport or ID card.
• If you are applying for a Dutch passport or ID card for your child for the first time, use their birth certificate as proof of legal residence and bring an extract from the Norwegian population register (utskrift av registrerte opplysninger) from the parents.
• If you are applying for a passport or ID card for your minor child, use a recent extract from the Norwegian population register (utskrift av registrerte opplysninger) for both the child and the Dutch parent(s).

If you live in Sweden, you can prove legal residence by providing one of the following documents:

• an utdrag om folkbokföringsuppgifter – 120 med alla relationer (extract from the Swedish population register) in English, signed and stamped)
  • You can obtain this document (personbevis) online on the Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket) website. First select the organisation that needs the extract from the drop-down list (Utländsk ambassad / myndighet / annan mottagare) and then the type of certificate required (120 med alla relationer).
  • If you cannot apply online you can call Skatteverket on 0771 567 567 (within Sweden) or +46 8 564 851 60 (from outside Sweden).
  • If you apply via the website, you will need to log in with your BankID or Mobile BankID. You can then immediately apply for an extract for yourself and print it. If you are applying on behalf of a child, you can only apply for the extract by post. If you do not wish to log in using BankID, you can apply for an extract using the personnummer of the applicant and have it sent to the address where you are registered.
• if you also have Swedish nationality: a valid Swedish passport or ID card. Please note: an ID card issued by the Swedish Tax Agency or a Swedish driving licence is not sufficient to prove you are legally resident in Sweden.
• If you are applying for a Dutch passport or ID card for your child for the first time, use their birth certificate as proof of legal residence.

If you live in Iceland, you can prove legal residence by providing one of the following documents:

• an extract in English from the Icelandic population register (Búsetuvottorð or Ríkisfangsvottorð)
• if you also have Icelandic nationality: a valid Icelandic passport or ID card.
• If you are applying for a Dutch passport or ID card for your child for the first time, use their birth certificate as proof of legal residence.

If you have a birth certificate or marriage certificate from Norway, you must have the document legalised with an apostille. Find out more about having documents from Norway legalised.

If you have other documents from Norway, or documents from another country, find out if you need to have them legalised.

You can submit documents written in Dutch, English, German or French. If you have documents in another language, you should have them translated by a sworn translator.

When do I have to hand in my old passport or ID card?

If you are collecting your new passport or ID card in person, you should hand in your old one when you come to collect it.

If you are having your passport or ID card sent to you, you will need to first send your old one to the embassy or consulate-general. Only then will your new passport or ID card be sent to you. This means that there will be a period when you have no passport or ID card. If you want your old passport or ID card back, inform the embassy or consulate-general.

I have a residence permit or visa in my old passport, what should I do?

If your passport contains visas or a residence permit and you want to keep those pages intact, inform staff of this when you submit your old passport.

After you submit your application you will receive a track & trace code to track the status of your application. You will receive an email when your new passport or ID card is ready.

You can collect your new passport or ID card from the embassy in Oslo from Monday to Friday between 9:00 - 16:00 hours.

You do not need to make an appointment but first check which days our offices are closed.

It is normally not possible to have your new ID card sent to you. But double check this when you submit your application.
