UDI applies a real salary threshold most applicants don't expect — tiered by your education level (NOK 599,200/year for master's-level roles, NOK 522,600/year for bachelor's-level, effective 1 May 2026), used whenever no collective agreement governs the position. If your job is covered by a collective agreement, that agreed salary applies instead of the flat threshold — worth checking which situation actually applies to your role.

Cost: NOK 6,300-8,000
