Norway
Use our advice together with your own research from reputable sources to plan your trip.
Entry and Exit
Singaporeans can visit Norway for up to 90 days within 180 days from the date of initial entry within the Schengen region without a visa, provided no employment is pursued.
Norway is part of the Schengen Area. Entry into any of the European countries in the Schengen Area for short-term tourism, a business trip, or in transit to a non-Schengen destination, requires a minimum three months’ passport validity beyond the intended date of departure. Singaporeans should have their passports with them when crossing borders, even within the Schengen Area. As visa requirements often change at short notice, we advise you to contact your travel agency, or the Norwegian Embassy in Singapore for up-to-date information.
Safety and Security
Driving: Snow and ice make road conditions dangerous in winter. Headlights must be switched on at all times, even during the day. Snow tires are required between November and April each year. If you are driving to a remote area, pack extra water, food, and blankets. Do not drive if weather conditions are poor. Drivers are strongly encouraged to purchase a comprehensive insurance plan and to seek advice on safe driving when road conditions are icy.
Winter Sports: Getting caught outdoors in the winter can be fatal. Do keep your family and friends informed of your plans, including the time you expect to return. Ensure your travel insurance covers your chosen sports activity before you do it.
Petty Crime: While the crime rate is generally low, petty crime such as pickpocketing and street theft does occur. Be aware of your surroundings and take care of your belongings.
