Travel regulations Norway

• Participation is only possible for people who are fully vaccinated (with an approved vaccine) or who have recovered from corona disease with appropriate proof. Anyone who can prove this with a valid vaccination or recovery certificate is considered to be fully vaccinated or recovered. Please note that a time limit of 270 days has been set for the recognition of the digital vaccination certificate since the completion of the first vaccination series. You then need a booster vaccination so that the digital vaccination certificate remains valid.
