UDI immigration statistics

Name: UDI immigration statistics
License: NLOD

The Norwegian Directorate of Immigration (UDI) publishes ongoing statistics on immigration to Norway — asylum applications, granted work permits, family immigration and visitor visas, broken down by citizenship and month. UDI has no open JSON/REST API; the tables are served as static HTML pages. The connector is therefore a statistics harvester: it fetches the HTML table page for a curated series, parses the table without dependencies and normalises to long form `{ period, category, value, unit, sourceUrl }`. Each series is year-parameterised. A central source for the journalist, municipality and compliance segments. Licence: NLOD.
