A consultation with your doctor GP is 160 kr / 15€ - all blood tests 59 kr / 5€. Maximum 2460 kr / 230€ per year out of your own pocket for all medical expenses (doctor, tests, medication and other treatments). If you are admitted to a hospital, everything they do during the stay is free no matter if you have reached the max. Ambulance transport is also free. For those not having paid work in Norway, paying taxes, other prices apply.

Thanks for this video...I'm living in Norway 3 months now and you have answered some questions I had

It is important to note that you can rent the same size of apartment for almost half the prize just outside Oslo, you would just need to take a train to work instead. Living in the city center is always much more expensive.

Hello. We live in Bergen, me and my husband. And we have some difference. On rent, close to sentrum, we pay 8000kr (55m2), little more than you on internet+tv 1000kr, on electricity around 700kr. But we own a car, an electric one. So its quiet cheeper than a diesel one. And we pay 3300kr on loan per month, 600kr on insurance and around 500kr on road taxes (bompenger). And maybe sometimes we use the fast charge station, this will be around 100kr per month, some months we use it more, and sometimes less or we don't use it at all.

i just love that even if the food was expensive, it really delighted me that all of the veggies and fruits in the supermarket are never rotten. thry were all fresh

I own a car, but I live in the countryside where there are no trams or subways and the buss is mostly in other places. My job also demand that I have a car ready for meetings, conferences or just go and look at things. I have an Volvo v70 99 model. I can afford a much newer car, but this have been my car for the past 6 - 7 years. Old cars like this one must go to the repair shop quite often, there is always something failing, but the parts are cheap and in an abundance. The repair job itself is usually where the cost lies. On average I think I spend around 10000 to 15000 in repair costs a year (a couple of big repairs is pulling up the number). 10000 in insurance, not sure why it's so expensive, it's a family car... Next trip to the repair shop will be on Tuesday, there is this noise that increases with the speed, don't know what it is. I hope it's a cheap repair, but it could also mean end of life for this car. Being two people on sharing the cost of living is great and really lowers the cost. Sadly it's not something everyone is able to do, some must live alone. Around 18% do so in Norway (2020 numbers). Many of them like to live alone, but the extra cost is annoying.

Thanks for sharing, very helpful for people who want to move to Norway (me😁). Like always I enjoy your video. Sending good vibe and love😊

Yey... was waiting on this. Your videos are so interesting! Love it.. and you! :)

This is very informative. I am planning to come and live in Norway soon and thank you so much for this video.

Very helpful thank you :) im planning to move to Oslo this year

Can you make of video of what you do for a living and how you found your 1st job? Btw great video and very informative! Thank you

Loved the video a lot!

woah it was the groceries that got me. that's like 3 months of organic groceries for a family of three in london

Thank you for informative and helpful content. God bless

Thank you for this video👍

Lovely information Thankyou

Water bills is not a thing in Norway, have been some talk about it, but think there will be huge revolts if that changes. However if you own your own house or apartment you pay a yearly fee for maintance of pipes, garbage pickups,snowplowing etc. those fees depends on what kommune you do live in, as each kommune have different yearly fees you have to pay.

Great video! Hope you had a nice trip to Italy! :)

It is really not that expensive, However as a student thinking to study in Norway, I should have a part-time job.

OMG groceries are so expensive!! I spend about £300 in the UK, very surprised

Living in a smaller town I rent for 8400kr for a ~48m2 two room apartment. This includes a TV deal the coop has and parking spot in the basement garage. Electricity is probably around 800kr average per month throughout the year. Around 600kr for a 300/300mbit fiber line. Insurances 140kr. The car cost me ~770kr for insurance and tax just sitting in the garage :) Adding up everything I eat or drink is about 3000-3500kr per month. So I'm guessing around 13000kr on average per month minimum.

Great video! Could you advise on the Web pages, most typically used to find long-term accommodation?

if you live in the EU just bring your own car here, you can use it for 6 months or 1 year (i can't remember exactly). Just dont forget to register it to the system because the highway tolls and some tunnel or bridge is post-paid

How do you manage to pay so little in electricity? I live in a one story 70 m2 house and pay around 600 in the summer and about 1000 in the winter. May I ask what company you use?

Thanks this video

When we were on holiday in Norway we bought a lot of groceries with too good 2 go. And we were really lucky with the products we got. Begin june we are going to move to Norway so i think we will use too good 2 go again. :-) but 760 for groceries is not that expensive i think. I am used to the Dutch prices now.

On your first job offer in Norway, are you already conversant in Norwegian language? Or would you say that Norwegian language was not a factor why you got a job offer? Thanks in advance! 😁

min 1:58 "rent has gone up so much in the last 3 years" I'm in Toronto and its the exact same thing. What is up with that?

Hei Mon, thanks for the very helpful video. I was wondering about taxes (I don't think you mentioned those). Wikipedia says the highest income tax rate is 25%. That seems very low, I think something is missing there ... Edit: found the answer to my 2nd question on your student expenses video :-)

If you buy your food once a week instead of each day you could cut your food expences quite a lot. My wife and me eat about the same way as you and your beau, but we only use about 6000 kr. If you buy a year long pass on the public transport in Oslo you pay for 10 months ang get two months for free.

The conversions are wrong for nok to euro. That’s 1223 euros not 1350. And 1335 usd for extra credit. I also want to point out that the cost for your monthly public transportation pass is far cheaper than most major cities in the USA. Charlotte nc is 140 usd per month, and twin cities in mn is 83. Numbers would be slightly different 3 years ago. But im surprised to see how many people in Norway think it’s expensive when every video shows it’s so much cheaper than USA cities. Maybe you’re comparing to other European cities?

Como não consigo visto norueguês talvez eu vá para Portugal.

A água e o lixo são pagos semestralmente e é baseado no tamanho em m2 da casa e da kommune, o k pode ser approx 5000 ao ano no teu caso. Tb tens o custo da NRK anual k desde o ano passado é obrigatório mesmo n tendo tv. Esse custo é approx 3600 nok ao ano e o teu landlord deve tb estar a absorver esse custo. No teu caso em apartamento tb há o custo do condomínio, o sameiet, k tb tem k ser pago, talvez tb n vejas a factura, mas deve ser approx 2000 ao ano.

Beautiful information you given but haven't mentioned how many percentage of salaries are you saving in a month. Thank you very much

Olá Mon! O meu nome é José e à poucos dias mudei-me de Almada para Oslo para começar um PhD. Queria-te agradecer por todos os vídeos sobre Norwegian culture, lifestyle, etc, que têm ajudado bastante :-) Continua sempre a fazê-los! Cheers, Zé

Prices are similar to The Netherlands.

Can I afford to live in Norway if my pension is US$1,200 a month?

Thinking that 8000 on groceries seems alittle high but I suppose 4000 a person is around what is normal. The waterbill is probably in the rent... also garbage and general utility bill.

I find it hard to get a job in Norway with my profession, especially I'm only a diploma student but I can't afford to study there as my savings' not enough for rent and everything. If I ever get a job there, it has to be quite high paid in order to live like you and also send money home...

Hello my friend, I have a question, if I am a student and don't know Norwegian language, then would it be easy to find part time job in supermarkets?

Nos cá realmente a luz é bastante caro assim como o gás, se bem que as endas estão a aumentar bastante 😔 Gostei muito de ver querida 😘

Hii, I'm a Doctor and I'm wondering about moving to Germany or Norway ? Can't decide 💔 I'm biased towards Norway, but you know I need an advise Thank you!!

Is the monthly 1,100 kroner spending for one person. For example i would come to oslo and i would spend 1,100 kroner every month?

Well the year is 2022 now but i dont think much changed in Norway. I am a skilled engineer in Norway and my salary is relatively high comparing to employees in the IT area. First of all, gp does not help a lot , if u have a serious disease , you are fked up here. Health service is not working smootly and organized as it has been said. Groceries are extremenly expensive therefore Norweigan even prefer to ride swedish border to do shopping. Electricity prices doubled than mentioned. Renting more or less the same. Oslo is a secure area but Police is just too relaxed, For instance if smb has stolen your wallet or bike and u called police. They literally will do nothing. Transportation, a monthy pass costs 83 euros, can you imagine? and yeah use bike to go everywhere in the middle of winter if you can :) , If you want to buy a flat , there is a bidding and it is not %100 sure u will get the apartment u liked, after bidding even you are the winner, state may come across and say "hey i prioritize a local nearby " and you are out. I have friends entered 3 times in bidding and won but still could not buy the flat :)) Can you imagine ? So it is fancy to live in Norway from outside but everything i mentioned above is TRUE.

When you said that you pay 14000 for rent. That means what, you pay 14k and your bf 14k so in total 28k, or you pay 14k in total(7k each one of you)

Everything is so expensive! Makes me feel so lucky to live in the UK.. My entire monthly expenses including rent is just your rent. That's so mad!

Salary is quite high? Would you mind sharing the salary range in NOK? If you don’t want to share the whole number, the first digit would suffice 😁

I was wondering if you have a health insurance? I live in the Netherlands and we have a lot of insurances: like health and for your house, for the car, etc. But if you have not, how is it taken care of in Norway?

I definitely have to find a job within 3 months of moving to Oslo or i'll go broke 😢

Shook at how cheap electricity is over there wow... Groceries though... holy f. Also did not know there's no public healthcare??

All videos that I saw said "Norway is expensive", but what about the salaries? I mean, your country can be expensive but is possible survive/do a comfortable life with a regular salary? Or this difference between salary versus expenses is too much? For example, I'm from São Paulo city. My city is too expensive and the regular salary is not enough to be a comfortable/normal life, hahaha

Interesting

Good afternoon ma'am hope you will be fine I am chemical engr operation process engr I have 20 years experience in industry can u help me in getting job work permit god bless you anticipation

Is it normal for couples to split the rent in Norway?

I wished my whole life to visit norway even in 10 days

Hi

Uma dica: O algoritmo do KZfaq favorece videos com 10 minutos ou mais.

I saw the other day a noweigan buy an avocado for 4 dollars! If you like guacamole that could add up in a hurry!

Come on time is ticking that is a wrap...

Conclusion: Nothing comes at cheap price in Norway.

760 euro that is like $850 for groceries a month good god. That’s 1/3 as much money as I make per month and you eat it lol

Mda

14,000 kr is $2100 CAD ... wow that’s crazy expensive... not possible for a single person... be nice to that boyfriend. You need him 😉

Not much money at all spent.

Norge er et bra sted å bo

Here in norwegian vi walk our polar bears every morgen

Me out here spending $100 on groceries

You look a lot like Marissa Farina 💗

So are you saying that basically you deprive yourself of everything due to its cost just like people do in third world countries?. I mean, both you and your partner have gone through university, working in the field related to your studies, you also live in one of the countries with the largest GDP per capita, yet your budget seems a bit tight. It doesn't make much sense. Is that the case in most households. I thought you would have had the nicest warmest houses and latest volvos.

Girl, i suggest why don't you start your onlyfans? I think their is more viewers than this.
