Norway Introduces Changes to the Regulations Concerning Ukrainian Refugees

Changes in Norway Concerning Displaced Ukrainians – New Regulations

Norway, facing challenges related to the influx of refugees from Ukraine, is introducing significant changes to its regulations. Norwegian municipalities, which have so far shown great commitment to settling and integrating displaced people, will now have to adapt to new government guidelines.

Recently, as many as 60% of Ukrainians seeking refuge in the Nordic countries chose Norway. This influx of people puts pressure on various social and economic sectors, forcing the government to take stabilizing measures.

Main Changes:

  1. Refugee Child Benefit Scheme: Reducing the scope of the program for late payment child benefit for people covered by temporary collective protection.
  2. Travel restrictions: Tightening travel conditions between Ukraine and Norway for people with temporary collective protection.
  3. Changes in accommodation: Accommodation or transport will no longer be offered to displaced Ukrainians who have gone to other parts of the country, beyond the National Arrivals Center in Råde municipality.

The Minister of Justice and Emergency Preparedness, Emilie Enger Mehl (Sp), indicates that these actions are aimed at achieving a sustainable level of arrivals. Minister of Employment and Social Inclusion, Tonje Brenna (AP), emphasizes that, given the current number of arrivals, concrete steps are necessary.

Change details:

  • Child benefit: Limitation of the current system of delayed payment.
  • Travel to country of origin: Difficult access to returns to Ukraine.
  • National Registration Center: Need to contact the police and UDI to obtain accommodation in a refugee center.

The aim of these changes is to maintain control over the immigration and integration process, while ensuring a safe and dignified stay for refugees. The government emphasizes that the current number of arrivals requires responsible actions and does not rule out the introduction of further changes in the future.
