Norway Norway — entry & visa requirements

Visa-free for some nationalities, Schengen visa for others

Max stay: 90 days

Short answer

Whether you need a visa depends on your nationality. Citizens of some countries outside the EU/EEA can travel to Norway without a visa for up to 90 days, while others must apply for a Schengen visa. Our official archive does not describe how to apply or what it costs; they point to the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration (UDI) for the full list of who needs a visa.

Sparse archive — being expandedThe authority block (visa-exempt with tiers, maximum stay 90 days) matches the archived tier text, but no visitor-specific application, fee, border or FAQ material was archived, so most practical detail for a visitor is missing from these sources.

Who can enter visa-free

Norway sorts visitors by nationality. Citizens of some countries outside the EU/EEA may travel to Norway without a visa for up to 90 days, while others must apply for a Schengen visa before travelling. The archived official sources point to the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration (UDI) for the complete country-by-country list.

Nationals of some countries outside the EU/EEA can enter Norway visa-free for visits of up to 90 days.[1]
Travellers who are not covered by that exemption must apply for a Schengen visa.[1]
The full list of nationalities that need a visa is published on the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration (UDI) website.[1]
