Portuguese inflow to Norway decreases in 2023
Inês Vidigal
According to Statistics Norway data, in 2023 709 Portuguese entered the country. That statistical institute counted a total of 79,493 entries of foreigners in Norwegian territory, with the Portuguese representing 0.9% of this total. +

After increases in the number of Portuguese entering Norwegian territory in 2021 and 2022, a decrease was recorded in 2023 (-9.6%). This decrease is accompanied by a drop in the total number of immigrants entering Norway (-4.5%). The lowest value in the time series analysed (2001-2023) was in 2003, when only 55 Portuguese entered Norwegian territory, and the highest in 2013, when 815 Portuguese entered the country. Portuguese emigration to Norway is a recent phenomenon and the number of Portuguese entering Norway still represents a very small fraction of immigration to the country (0.9 per cent).
