Norway is open to individuals outside the European Union and the European Economic Areas who wish to apply for residence permit formerly known as work permit.
This permit is for skilled workers, seasonal workers, self-employed persons, or employees in humanitarian, non-profit, or religious organizations.
In some cases, The Scandinavian country is issuing entry visa to skilled workers who need a visa to visit Norway, allowing them to travel to Norway to hand in their application for a residence permit to the police or wait for a response to their application for a residence permit.
Entry visa does not entitle its holder to work in Norway but to stay in the country while you wait for the UDI to process your application for a residence permit.
