Description: Norway is party to the major international/regional treaties relevant to the prevention and reduction of statelessness and the protection of stateless persons. Although Norwegian legislation does not contain express references to provisions in the two major statelessness conventions, the 1954 and 1961 Conventions are incorporated into Norwegian law and thus enforceable under domestic law. Nonetheless important gaps in the implementation of the standards remain. Norwegian legislation contains no definition of a stateless person, Norway does not have a dedicated statelessness determination procedure and available statistics on the stateless population in Norway are somewhat limited.
