Could we get a visa for him while we wait on his norwegian passport?

Hi gabriel_04112015,

Welcome to Expat.com!

I created a new topic as from your post on the Norway forum for a better visibility.

hi gabriel.

if your baby is dual citizen (both Norwegian and Filipino), he dont need a visa to travel to Norway coz he is Norwegian citizen. even if you apply him a visa using his Philippine passport, he cant be granted a visa coz he is Norwegian citizen..  just wait for his norwegian passport and travel with that.

[Dual Citizen] Children....cannot be given a Schengen Visa in their Philippine (or other) passport as they are Norwegian citizens and must travel to Norway on a Norwegian passport. If you are planning a trip to Norway, it is important that you arrange for a Norwegian passport for the child/children prior to the trip.

hope this helps

As long as one of the parents is a norwegian citizen, the baby is automatically a norwegian citizen as well.  there is no need to apply visa for the baby to arrive Norway.

I don't know if you can get a hold of a ''Norwegian emergency passport'', but at least here in Norway if you're in a hurry to leave you can get an emergency passport which is valid for at least 6 months, i think. When you apply for it you get the passport right away, you just need to provide them a passport photo.

You can try and call if they can offer you that.

Wrong, I have met a couple of parents that never applied for a citizenship for their kids in Norway.
If your child was born in the Philippines with a Norwegian father or mother, and you never applied for a citizenship in Norway that kid will not become a Norwegian citizen.
If you don't apply for their citizenship before they turn 18 it will be nearly impossible to get them there as a Norwegian citizen. They have to register the kid on a Norwegian system, because hospitals in the philippines don't do that. So that kid will not be automatically be a citizen if no one did anything
