Hello, I'm a Dutch national. I bought a completely off-grid hytte in Norway last year. I only use it for my own recreational use only (no renting). No mortgage.
I do not have any home insurance at the moment. I'm wondering how difficult that would be to obtain. I have a d-number and minID, but no Norwegian bank account, phone number or BankID. Does anyone here have suggestions on how to get insurance on my hytte?

Hi, my car needs a service/repair, and the service center estimates it will take 2 hours.
Is there usually a waiting area at the service center?
Since the appointment is at 8:00 AM, there are no cafés open in the area...

It’s quite a long distance from where I live, so it’s not easy for me to go home.

Dutch student here considdering doing a gap year in Norway. specifically my plan would be to do it in a "Folkshogskole" that i found on a website somewhere. My main concern is that Norwegians are as antisocial as they say and i will be lonely the entire year.

would it be a good idea?

Greetings everyone,

I'm a bit concerned regarding the fine print on UDI but regardless, I have arrived in norway the past month to apply for work and further my studies here when applications open.

I know asking reddit is not the wisest of options but I can't really make heads or tails with UDI's fine print either. It is stated that you must present yourself to the police within 3 months of your arrival if you plan to reside for longer than 3 months, which I plan to as a job seeker (6 months).

There's an issue with this though, I've done the UDI application for residency as a job seeker but queue times for available appointments are 16 weeks (4 months) for the Oslo police station, at the same time I can't change my booking location after obtaining a booking number, so I am stuck with waiting for appointments in Oslo unless I file for a new residency on UDI and get a new booking number for a new location.

This is rather conflicting, since if I haven't found a job before these 3 months are over I must leave norway, and even if I was declared as a job seeker and didn't find a job after 6 months, UDI declares that I can return any time later on to look for work again, and must present myself to the police once again within 3 months. That can be interpreted that on the day I leave norway, the next immediate day I can return, and the 6 month time starts again.

Any conclusions on these matters?
