Moving to Oslo

The International Staff Mobility Office (ISMO) at the University of Oslo will assist recruited researchers prior to their arrival, upon their arrival and during their stay.

In concrete terms, ISMO will offer assistance with

  • residence permits
  • finding housing
  • help dealing with tax issues
  • finding childcare
  • other practical challenges related to moving to a new country

In this context, it should be underlined that it is a prerequisite that the fellows move to Norway by the time of employment and live here during the programme.

ISMO supports incoming international staff, PhD candidates, guest researchers and their families with relocation to UiO.
