Check the official requirements
Guide last reviewed 2026-05-12. Fees, documents and appointment rules can change.
The Norway Business Visa (Schengen Type C) lets Indian business professionals attend meetings, conferences, training, or trade events in Norway and other Schengen countries for up to 90 days. It does NOT authorise paid work — for that you need a Residence Permit (Skilled Worker) from UDI.
What it costs
Paid directly to Norway / VFS — these are not our service fee, and we never mark them up.
Figures per VFS Global, last verified 12 May 2026. Fees change without notice — the official page is final.
Embassy fees are set in EUR by UDI — the INR charged at VFS varies with the daily exchange rate. VFS service and courier fees are fixed in INR. Family members of EU/EEA nationals, pupils/students/teachers on educational trips, and researchers are exempt from the embassy fee (the fee must be paid up front in the UDI portal and refunded at appointment). All fees are non-refundable regardless of outcome.
Flights · Hotels · Insurance · Itinerary
Norway applies the Schengen rules, so travel insurance is not a nice-to-have — it is a legal condition of the visa.
2 of 4 are compulsory for Norway
Where people slip: Flying into one city and out of another with nothing showing how you travel between them. Officers read the whole route, and an unexplained gap reads as a plan that does not hold together.
Book for ₹708 (+₹472 per family member)Where people slip: Free-cancellation bookings are accepted, but if the entire file is free-cancellation the officer sees a trip nobody has committed to. Some of it should be real spend.
Confirmed hotel booking, ₹590 per hotel: message us firstWhere people slip: Buying cover for the adults and forgetting the children. Every traveller needs their own EUR 30,000, infants included — a real refusal we have seen on a family of four.
What a Schengen policy must showWhere people slip: Spending more nights in another Schengen country than in Norway. That gets a file rejected before it is even assessed.
The letter your itinerary attaches toWe can arrange the flight reservation, the hotel and the itinerary for your Norway file — each sold separately.
We are a B2B travel agency as well as a visa consultancy, working with partners including Riya Travel — so the flight reservation and the confirmed hotel booking both come from us, and you deal with one team. Every booking is a real one under your own name. We do not sell travel insurance: buy the policy directly from an insurer.
None of them is part of our visa fee: each is bought on its own, at the price below, with or without our visa service.
Flight reservation ₹708 (+₹472 per extra family member) · Confirmed hotel booking ₹590 per hotel · Travel itinerary ₹1,499. GST included.
Delivery. Usually within 30 minutes during office hours, Mon–Sat 10:00–18:00 IST. Confirmed hotel bookings are not bought online: message us first on WhatsApp or email info@sureshotvisa.com with the city, dates and travellers.

Frequently asked
Yes — attending paid conferences, training, or seminars where the fee is paid to the organiser is allowed. What's NOT allowed is receiving employment income from a Norwegian source. Honoraria for delivering a talk fall in a grey area — if the amount is significant, apply for a work permit.
Yes — the invitation letter from a Norwegian company or organisation is mandatory. If you're attending an event, the event organiser's confirmation can serve as the invitation. If self-funded, you also need to prove NOK 500/day/person via bank statement.
Extensions are rare and granted only for exceptional reasons (medical emergency, force majeure). Plan your trip within the 90-day window. For longer stays, apply for a Service Provider or Skilled Worker Residence Permit via UDI before travelling.
No — biometrics (fingerprints + photo) are stored in the Visa Information System (VIS) for 59 months. If you've given biometrics for any Schengen country within the last 59 months, you may be exempt — VFS confirms during booking.
No — each applicant files a separate visa application. Your spouse can apply for a Tourist Visa or Family/Friends visa concurrently. Mark both applications as linked at VFS for joint processing.
Yes — we work with clients in parallel: we prepare your Indian-side documents (company letter, MoA, ITR, bank statements) while you chase the Norwegian invitation letter, and submit together once it arrives. Saves 1–2 weeks vs sequential prep.

Your fee, in one glance
Government, VFS, insurance, ticket and hotel costs are separate and charged at cost. Read what each item means, in full.
Before you file
Filed on a guessed checklist, the government fee is gone on a refusal and the refusal follows every future application. Filed after a consultant at our licensed firm has read the papers against each other, the file answers the officer's questions before they are asked. Same Norway rules, different outcome. How we do that is written once, in full, on the method page rather than repeated here.
