Norway does not have a resident embassy in Cuba. Cuban applicants must apply through the Norwegian embassy accredited to Cuba, typically in Mexico City, or through a VFS Global visa application center if one handles Norwegian applications in the region.
Norway is one of the world's most expensive countries, so demonstrating ample financial means is particularly important in the visa application.
