Global mobility and immigration services

We assist Norwegian and international companies with work immigration and expat management in Norway.
Sending employees to work in Norway, or bringing in foreign talent to join a Norwegian entity, involves a mix of immigration, tax, and employment law requirements that need to be coordinated correctly from the start. Norwegian and international companies alike must navigate work permits, residence requirements, tax registration, and social security obligations — and getting any of these wrong can delay an assignment or create compliance risk for both the company and the employee. 
Aider Legal helps companies manage the full scope of global mobility, from securing the right permits to handling tax and payroll obligations for assignees, so relocations proceed smoothly and in full compliance with Norwegian requirements.
MEET OUR GLOBAL MOBILITY TEAM

Global mobility advisors ready to support your company's international assignments

Our global mobility advisors support expatriates, work immigrants, and employers with the practical realities of international work assignments — from initial planning through the employee's time in Norway. Because global mobility touches immigration, tax, and employment law all at once, our team works across these areas so you get one coordinated point of contact rather than several. Meet the team who will guide your company's global mobility needs.

How our global mobility advisors can support you

Managing an international assignment well means keeping immigration, tax, and payroll requirements aligned — not handled as separate problems. As part of Aider Group, our global mobility advisors work directly alongside in-house tax and payroll specialists, so your company gets one coordinated solution for permits, tax registration, and ongoing compliance, rather than piecing together advice from multiple providers. Contact a global mobility advisor to make sure your company's assignments are set up correctly from day one.
