Hi Abhishek,

This is Vivek, when are you planning to relocate to Norway, do you have a job offer on hand? You need to plan well before you come to Norway as the cost of living is very high and its not easy to get an apartment here.

1. Rent: 6000 - 12000 NOK's depending of you requirement
2. You can find Indian shops 2000 NOK approx.
3. Transport 600 -700 NOK
4. School Fees am not sure on this may be its free or there is a fee
5. Mobile charges are expensive depends of you usage its costs 1Krone per call or even more depends on the plan.

Regards
Vivek

Hi Vivek

Thanks for the helpful information.

I think I will get 15 days accomadation to search the apartment, is that time is enough to get the apartmrnt.
Also I prefer 1 BHK apartment even in little outskirts of Oslo, how much that should cost.

Thanks for you great help.

Abhishek
