The Norwegian borders are still closed for all but Norwegian citizens and foreigners who possess a residence permit or a work permit. As a general rule, this will apply until 20 August but the government will consider exceptions as the situation changes.
From 15 June, the Nordic countries have agreed to reopen their borders to allow travel between the countries. This does not apply to Sweden, except for the island Gotland. This means that quarantine on arrival and entry restrictions will no longer apply for travel between Norway and Denmark, Finland, Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Greenland, Åland, and the island Gotland in Sweden. Please note that you have to travel directly from your country to Norway with ferry or plane. Visitors who travel via Sweden (except Gotland) will need to undergo quarantine.
