Log in to the Self-service portal

1. Go to Employment and the form "transfer holiday"
2. Enter the number of holidays you want to transfer. 
3. Write any comments in the white field.
4. Tap "Send for approval." 

The form first goes to the Service Centre for Payroll and HR for inspection before it is sent to your manager.

You can view your submitted applications for transfer of holiday in the Self-Service Portal (My Employment - List of all forms - Transfer of holiday days"). If you want to change the number of days that transfer to the next year, you need to submit a new form.

Transfer rules

Transferring holiday days to the following year is basically not a right. The main rule is that the holiday must be taken in the year to which it belongs. If this is not possible, you can enter into a written agreement to transfer a maximum of 14 days of holiday to the next year. 

The manager has the right to instead order you to take your holiday this year. The deadline for registering this in the Self Service Portal/DFØ app is 15 November, but your manager may demand clarification of this at an earlier stage. 

Apply for an advance in NTNU Help

You can apply to take up to ten days of holiday in advance each year. The deadline for applying is 15 November. You must have applied for all holiday in this year's quota (paid and unpaid) before you can apply for an advance on holiday days. It is not possible to apply for an advance on paid holiday days as long as you have unused unpaid holiday days left.
