The embassy and its network in the Netherlands
According to the Dutch government, Norway is represented by Ambassador Ellen Aarvaag Groeneveld (since 2 August 2010). Because The Hague hosts the Dutch government as well as the International Court of Justice and the OPCW, diplomatic work here often covers international law and organisations too. Three honorary consulates support Norwegian citizens in other parts of the Netherlands.
Consular services
Typical consular services include:
- Norwegian passports and emergency travel documents
- Registration of births, marriages and deaths
- Certification and legalisation of documents
- Certificates for pensions abroad
- Citizenship and civil register matters
