Thank you for keeping this page updated. I’ve been saving all my vacation days since 2018 for an eventual trip to Norway, and I’ve been checking this page on and off since I got vaccinated and started to look into traveling again. I know you’re not the govt nor an expert on the constantly-shifting rules so I’ll send my questions somewhere else, but I want you to know how much I appreciate you coming back with edits when the rules change, as they are very difficult to keep track of. Happy holidays from the US

Thank you for this information. We have had a trip to Scandinavia planned for several years and were hoping to go in February 2022. We wanted to go to Norway after going to Iceland and Denmark (then to Sweden). As best as I can understand, regardless of the fact we are travelling via other countries and are fully vaccinated in Canada, our proof of vaccine is not accepted in Norway and therefore we would need to quarantine for minimum of 3 days. Before I cancel this section of our trip (we were hoping on doing Norway in a Nutshell from Bergen), I wanted to check if my understanding is accurate. No idea why our vaccine passport with a QR code is not acceptable in Norway when it appears acceptable every where else we are going. Thanks for any help.

In reply to Tash. hi tash! I am also interested how you got the EU covid digital pass! I would be very grateful for any information on how you obtained it! I am an US passport holder living in the US.

If possible you should just shut off the comments on this thread as most people want you to do exactly what you cannot – give them specific advice for their specific circumstances. Love your pages and insight!

Hi David,

Long time reader of your site. Checking the latest updates on entry rules from helsenorge.no, along with the UDI website, it appears entry in Norway is really all about where you’re traveling from. I’m American living in the US, but I might be getting a job interview with a startup in Oslo, so I’m inquiring about your interpretation of the rules. I know I can’t (from what I can tell) travel to Norway directly, but if I were to fly to Copenhagen in Denmark and stay there for 2 weeks or so, and then fly to Oslo, I would be allowed in, correctly? I have been fully vaccinated with Pfizer (and getting my booster soon), but I know they don’t accept the US card, so I’m sure I’d have to quarantine, which I’m fine with. I’ve reached out to the Norwegian embassies in Washington DC and Copenhagen to confirm this, but I wanted to reach out to you and see if this was your interpretation as well (an American flying to an entry-approved country, staying for a bit, and then being allowed into Norway). Tusen takk!

In reply to Aldo Esposito. What did you do to fill out information when coming into the country? Yes it possible that you were allowed because you have family in Norway?

Why Is Norway still going to keep out vaccinated Americans when the US is allowing vaccinated Europeans in, on top of that places like Sweden are allowing in vaccinated Americans as well, what’s Norway’s problem?

Can I go to Sweden or something like that and then go to Norway from there?

I need to get there for work reasons. US Citizen, fully vaccinated and would be arriving from the UK or Germany after a brief 1 day stop in either country. Does the stop over make this possible or is the default US citizen issue / US vaccine card still the problem.

In reply to Aldo Esposito. Are you serious? They didn't check your US Passport once? And Norway seems at least from the outside to be extremely strict about who gets into the country it's almost unbelievable you were able to do this so easily.

In reply to David Nikel. Thanks for your great articles. I am in Nz and sadly our govt is moronic and draconian . When it’s said that Norway has stopped restrictions yet vaccine certificates are still used? For travel only ? Or any medical care? How are certificates used in Society or are they not? Thanks 🌸
