Cash card
Upon arrival in Bergen, Sammen can issue a cash card, called kronekort in Norwegian, from the money deposited into the student deposit account. The initial amount that can be given in advance is NOK 14 000. The cash can be refilled until you get the Norwegian ID number and can open a Norwegian bank account in your name. To request a refill, send an email to sammen.okonomi@sammen.no.
The cash card can be obtained at Sammen's information desk located at the Student Centre in Parkveien 1 and at Fantoft's service centre in Fantoftveien 14.
If you lose your card a replacement fee of NOK 200 will have to be charged for a new card.
Remaining funds
Sammen will transfer the remaining funds to you as soon as you notify Sammen at sammen.okonomi@sammen.no of your Norwegian bank account number.
You must notify Sammen of your Norwegian bank account and address in Norway as soon as possible. Sammen will deduct a small banking fee of NOK 150.
