Did You Know?
A marriage entered into outside Norway will NOT be valid in Norway if:
- One of the parties to the marriage is under the age of 18 when the marriage takes place.
- The marriage is entered into without both parties being physically present during the marriage ceremony (marriage by proxy or telephone marriage).
- One of the parties is already married.
In all three cases, at least one of the parties must be a Norwegian national or permanent resident of Norway when the marriage is entered into.
As a rule, a marriage that is entered into outside Norway will otherwise be recognised in Norway if the marriage has been contracted in a valid manner in the country in which it took place.
If a person applies for family reunification, the immigration authorities decide whether his or her marriage is valid in Norway.
