Friday the 9th of Juli 2021:

If you live in the EEA / Schengen and have been fully vaccinated against Covid-19 or recovered from Covid-19 in the last six months, you can now travel to Norway if you can document this in a safe and verifiable way-

Currently, you must present a COVID-19 certificate (Norwegian, Danish, Swedish or EU digital COVID certificate) with a QR code which is considered to be a secure and of proving vaccination or previous illness. You can also travel into Norway without being in quarantine if you live in a “green” region or country. For this to apply, you must have been in the “green” region for 10 days before entering Norway. You must prepare to show your travel documents to the Norwegian border police.

At the time of writing this, not all cross boarders are open, and visitors and travelers of St. Olavsleden are only allowed to enter Norway where documents can be verified by Norwegian authorities – therefore the border between Sweden and Norway at Skalstugevägen is closed. Read more about open border crossings with test stations here: www.helsedirektoratet.no/tema/beredskap-og-krisehandtering/koronavirus/apne-grenseoverganger-med-teststasjoner?fbclid=IwAR1xllNmi9HeLsSCjHa_wy9kkb6xtKcR_SWm9xr8Kfwp0g3xFZ-_bVuLN3g

Please note that rules and regulations regarding coronavirus and travels can be changed frequently and at a short notice, both at national and local level. Remember that a great responsibility lies with you as an individual traveler. Every traveler should stay well informed about the entry regulations that apply to the destination.
