In Norway, the number of unaccompanied minors applying for asylum peaked in 2015, reaching nearly 5,500. This was the year when there was a high influx of refugees from the Middle East to Europe. Since then, the number of applications has significantly decreased, but saw an increase in 2022, reaching nearly 700 applications.
