Norwegian-Iranians (also known as Iranian Norwegians; Persian: ایرانیان نروژی, Norwegian: Norsk-iranere) are Norwegians of Iranian descent. The first wave of Norwegian-Iranians migrated to Norway as a direct consequence of the political instability that followed the Islamic revolution in 1979. The political climate has since forced many others to seek refuge in Norway.

The majority of Norwegian-Iranians are ethnic Persians, with sizeable ethnic minorities being Iranian Azerbaijanis, Kurd-Iranians, Arab-Iranians, Northern Iranians (Gilak & Mazandarani) and Kermanshahi Kurds and Lurs.[1]
