Norway Application for a Driving Licence/Competence Certificate, incl. Health Self-Declaration — Søknad om førerkort/kompetansebevis
Statens vegvesen's (the Norwegian Public Roads Administration) combined application form for a driving licence and/or competence certificate (kompetansebevis, e.g. for professional goods/passenger transport or emergency-vehicle driving), "Søknad om førerkort og kompetansebevis / Egenerklæring om helse" ("Application for driving licence and competence certificate / Health self-declaration"). The form covers six mutually-exclusive application types (first-time licence, class extension, renewal, exchange of a foreign licence, return of a confiscated licence, or a competence certificate), a checklist of up to 20 driving-licence classes plus 3 competence-certificate types the applicant is requesting, an optional declaration of an existing foreign driving licence, and a mandatory 17-question health self-declaration (Egenerklæring om helse) covering vision, neurological, cardiovascular, psychiatric, and other conditions relevant to fitness to drive — the answers to which determine what medical certificate, if any, must be obtained and presented separately at the trafikkstasjon (traffic station) before a licence is issued (this downstream medical-certificate requirement is described on the form's own second page but is not itself a field on this form, since it is a separate document obtained from a doctor/optician, not entered here). This closes Norway's DMV vertical (the registry's 35th jurisdiction, opened via Business Formation in GOV-2314/GOV-2316; National ID closed via GOV-2323); Norway's only remaining open vertical is Visa (UDI form GP7028), per this registry's own pre-scouted CATALOG.md backlog. Submitting this application is a citizen action performed directly at a trafikkstasjon or via Statens vegvesen's own online channels; this schema does not submit the application itself, and the live source (vegvesen.no) is always authoritative. GovSchema is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the Kingdom of Norway or Statens vegvesen.

Verification record
Candidate selection
GOV-2330 ("GovSchema Standard Research") is the latest firing of this registry's recurring standard-research routine. CATALOG.md's own "Known Gaps & Opportunities" section (item 8) named two open Norway candidates left over from the GOV-2316 parent cycle after GOV-2323 closed National ID:
- DMV: Statens vegvesen's driving-licence application, ~82 widgets (pre-scout estimate).
- Visa: UDI's form GP7028, ~328 widgets, disclosed by the pre-scout as UDI's legacy/paper fallback rather than its primary online-portal path, with an open question over whether the paper specimen is still genuinely accepted.
The DMV candidate was picked: it is roughly a quarter the size of GP7028, has no live-portal-vs-paper-fallback question mark, and closing it leaves Norway at 5 of 6 verticals (only Visa open), mirroring this cycle's own "prefer deepening an existing jurisdiction's genuine open gap" convention.

Extraction technique
pdfjs-dist v6.1.200 (legacy/build/pdf.js, installed fresh to a disposable /tmp directory) was used via page.getAnnotations() per page:
- Page 1: 82 Widget annotations — all of them.
Txtext fields for the applicant-info block and the foreign-licence/confiscation detail rows;Btncheckbox fields for the written-form preference, the application-type choice, the 23-item licence-class/competence checklist, the foreign-licence Ja/Nei pair, and 17 Ja/Nei radio-button pairs (34 widgets) for the health self-declaration. - Page 2: 0 Widget annotations — entirely informational prose (medical certificate requirements by licence class, general application guidance), confirmed by a full
page.getTextContent()read of both pages. doc.getFieldObjects()cross-check: 65 distinct field names — the 82 raw widgets collapse to 65 because each of the 17 health questions shares one AcroForm field name across its Ja/Nei radio-button pair (radioButton: true, distinctbuttonValues"ja"/"nei"), matching this cycle's own hand-count of82 - 17 = 65exactly.
page.getTextContent() output (with each item's x/y transform) was used to recover the full text of all 17 numbered health questions — the source PDF's own field names for these are just "Egenerklæring om helse - N", not the question text itself, so the questions were read directly off the page and matched to each field by their shared y-coordinate band.
Field mapping (65 field names → 57 fields, 0 documents[])
- Written-form preference (
ønsket målform - bokmål/ønsket målform - nynorsk, 2 Btn widgets) → singlepreferredWrittenFormenum field (bokmal/nynorsk), the same checkbox-pair-to-enum collapse this registry has used repeatedly for a form's own single either/or choice implemented as independent checkboxes. - Application-type choice (
Førerkort første gang/Utvidelse/Fornyelse/Innbytte av/Tilbakelevering/Kompetansebevis, 6 Btn widgets under the heading "Søknaden gjelder:") → singleapplicationTypeenum field. The form's own heading and single-row layout make clear only one applies per submission. - Foreign-licence Ja/Nei pair (
Ja/Nei, 2 generically-named Btn widgets under "Har du et førerkort fra et annet land?") → singlehasForeignLicenceboolean, gating three detail fields viavisibleWhen/requiredWhen. - Licence-class/competence checklist (23 Btn widgets:
AM145throughDE, plusyrkessjåfør godstransport/yrkessjåfør persontransport/utrykning kode 160) — kept as 23 independent boolean fields, one per checkbox, rather than collapsed to a single enum or an array. Unlike the two choices above, this checklist is genuinely multi-selectable (an applicant can request several classes/trailer combinations in one application, e.g. B + BE, or C1 + C1E), and this registry's spec (spec/v0.3/govschema.schema.json,$defs/field/properties/type) has noarrayfield type — confirmed by grepping everyschema.jsoncurrently inregistry/for a"type": "array"field, which returns zero hits. Independent booleans are therefore this spec's correct expression of a multi-select checkbox group, not a workaround. - 17 health self-declaration questions (
Egenerklæring om helse - 1through- 17, each a Ja/Nei radio-button pair sharing one field name) → 17 independent boolean fields (healthQuestion1...throughhealthQuestion17...), eachrequired: trueper the form's own instruction ("Les grundig gjennom spørsmålene nedenfor før du besvarer spørsmålene" — read through the questions carefully before answering them) andclassification: "health"per GSP-0006.
Every other widget maps one-to-one to a schema field: the 8 applicant-info text fields, the foreign-licence detail block (3 fields, gated on hasForeignLicence), and the confiscated-licence detail block (3 fields, gated on applicationType == return_of_confiscated_licence).
0 documents[] entries is a disclosed structural fact, not an oversight, matching this registry's fi/vero/50a-earned-income-and-deductions precedent: neither page contains a "vedlegg" (attachment) checklist or any attachment-related field or instruction (confirmed by grepping the full getTextContent() output of both pages for "vedlegg"/"attach", zero hits). The medical certificates the health-declaration answers may trigger (described in detail on page 2) are a separate downstream requirement obtained from a doctor/optician and presented later at the trafikkstasjon, not an attachment to this form itself.
Disclosed exclusion
One widget, field name "Har du et førerkort fra et annet land" (Tx, rect spanning the full row width x: 155.0-571.8, y: 493.3-507.7), is excluded from this schema. Its field name is the question text itself ("Do you have a driving licence from another country?"), reused verbatim as an internal AcroForm field name — but visually it sits as a stray, full-width text box positioned above the three real answer fields for that section (utfyllende opplysninger i feltene til høyre / Utstedt dato / Gyldig til, all at a distinct, lower y-band, 471.6-485.5), not aligned with any of the two caption lines ("Førerkort for klasse" / "Utstedt av (land)") it visually overlaps. No rendering could be produced to confirm what, if anything, this box is meant to capture beyond what the three real fields already collect (the same headless-Chromium/pdfjs-dist+node-canvas rendering gap this registry's no/brreg cycle (GOV-2316) already hit on a different Norwegian specimen), so it is treated as a forms-authoring artifact — a duplicate or leftover text layer — rather than guessed at, following this registry's convention of disclosing rather than silently resolving a genuine ambiguity (the same treatment no/brreg's stray Check Box84 widget received).
Conformance run
Two mock scenarios were authored with valid synthetic (non-real) data and checked against a disposable checker script evaluating every field's required/requiredWhen/visibleWhen/validation (pattern, enum, maxLength, date) and both crossFieldValidation rules:
first-time-car-licence-minimal.json— a first-time class-B (car) applicant, no foreign licence, all 17 health questions answeredfalse(no conditions declared). 0 errors.renewal-multi-class-with-foreign-licence.json— a renewal application requesting classes B, BE, and C1 simultaneously, an existing foreign licence declared with issue/expiry dates, and two health questions (healthQuestion1VisualAcuity,healthQuestion9Diabetes) answeredtrue. 0 errors.
Two mutation controls were also run against the second fixture: (1) setting hasForeignLicence: true while deleting foreignLicenceIssuedDate correctly raised exactly 1 error (requiredWhen violation); (2) setting foreignLicenceIssuedDate to a date after foreignLicenceValidUntil correctly raised exactly 1 error (the foreignLicenceValidUntilNotBeforeIssuedDate crossFieldValidation rule).
Both fixtures also pass node tools/validate.mjs and node tools/validate-ajv.mjs (structural + meta-schema conformance) for the schema document itself; registry-index.json was regenerated via npm run build-index and the full registry re-validated with all documents passing.
Disclosed judgment calls
foreignLicenceClassAndCountrycombines two source captions ("Førerkort for klasse" and "Utstedt av (land)") that sit stacked over a single wide answer widget on the source form into one free-text field, rather than splitting them into two, since only one widget exists to capture both.confiscatedToDateandforeignLicenceValidUntilare left optional even when their sibling start-date field is required, since both represent an open-ended end date the form does not always require (a confiscation or a foreign licence may have no fixed end date).- Norway now stands at 5 of 6 verticals (Passport is a confirmed dead-end per the GOV-2316 cycle's own screening; Taxes is confirmed fully-digital/pre-filled with no downloadable form). Visa (UDI form GP7028) is Norway's only remaining open vertical.
