GENERAL INFORMATION ON NORWAY - for guidance only!
Crime
There are few safety concerns in Norway, but visitors should be aware of the dangers of petty theft particularly in areas where crowds gather in Oslo such as Gardermoen Airport and the Central Railway Station. Sensible precautions should be observed and visitors should not leave valuables lying around.
Road Safety
You should ensure that you have arranged appropriate vehicle insurance cover prior to travelling. Distances are great and driving takes longer than you think. Narrow and winding roads may be hazardous and impassable, especially in winter. Winter tyres are mandatory from approximately 1 November to 15 April (exact dates can vary year on year). You should keep headlights on at all times and observe speed limits, which are in general significantly lower than in the UK. Fines for exceeding the speed limit are high. You should be aware that certain driving laws differ in Norway. For example, on roads which are not marked with a priority sign (a yellow diamond), drivers must give way to traffic coming from the right.
Alcohol limits for drivers are far stricter than UK levels. Roadside checks for alcohol are frequent, and submission to a breathalyser is mandatory. Penalties for driving under the influence are severe and can lead to a prison sentence. The 0.20ml limit means in effect no alcohol 12 hours before driving.
A valid UK, or other EU/EEA driving licence is sufficient for driving in Norway if here as a visitor. There is no need for an International Driving Permit.
LOCAL LAWS AND CUSTOMS
You should not become involved with drugs of any kind. Possession of even small quantities can lead to heavy fines and/or imprisonment. This applies also to the use, possession and/or importation of khat/qat which is prohibited in Norway, though legal in the UK.
Imports
Norwegian authorities allow the importation of up to a maximum of 10Kgs (combined total) of meat and cheese for personal consumption. Visitors with other import queries may contact http://www.defra.gov.uk/animalh/int-trde/gen-inf/controls.htm for additional information.
You should consult the Norwegian Embassy in London before travelling to Norway with pets.
As Norway is not in the EU many shops operate a VAT refund shopping system for non-residents. This enables you to receive refunds of the VAT on purchased goods, usually at the airport as you leave Norway. Norwegian VAT cannot be refunded by UK authorities.
There are limits to the amount of currency you can personally carry into or out of Norway. This is currently set at 25,000 Norwegian Krone (about £2,000). If you bring any more than this into the country, the amount must be declared to Customs on arrival. Exporting currency from Norway in excess of the set limit has to be approved in advance by Norwegian Customs and transferred through a bank. Forms for this and further information can be found at www.toll.no. You will need a form RD0026.
Failure to comply with these rules can lead to arrest, a substantial fine and temporary confiscation of currency in excess of the limit which may then be released only through a bank.
ENTRY REQUIREMENTS
British nationals must hold a valid passport but do not require visas to visit Norway. Norway is a member country of the EEA, which entitles British nationals to work or reside in Norway. To do so an EEA permit is required, which the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration (UDI) issue.
HEALTH
The Norwegian Food Control Authority warns that local advice should be sought if eating mussels harvested off the coast and certain types of fish from lakes and fjords.
The standard of healthcare is high. Under the terms of the EEA Regulation, British nationals are covered for emergency treatment whilst visiting Norway. You should take with you a new transitional E111 form, which should be completed before you leave the United Kingdom (see UK Department of Health leaflet "Health Advice for Travellers" Tel: 0800 555 7777 website www.dh.gov.uk/travellers). A separate E111 form is required for each family member. This is available free of charge from most United Kingdom post offices.
You should, however, ensure that you have comprehensive travel and medical insurance before arriving in Norway and, if appropriate, that this includes cover for winter sports.
For further information on health, check the Department of Health’s website at www.dh.gov.uk.
GENERAL
Norway is very expensive - bring or have electronic access to plenty of money, especially if intending to eat and drink in restaurants and bars. Bank opening hours are more restrictive than in the UK - especially in summer, though cashpoints are widely available. Most Norwegian cashpoints accept Visa, Mastercard and Cirrus cards issued by British banks. Visitors should be aware that credit cards are generally not accepted as a means of payment in Norwegian supermarkets and petrol stations. Visitors should also be aware that sending money electronically to Norway is limited to only one American Express Office in Oslo, which uses "Moneygram".
Summer visitors intending to visit forest, lake and mountainous regions should bring plenty of insect repellent as mosquitoes and midges can be a problem. Fire bans (ie no campfires) are strictly enforced in many areas during the summer months. If you plan to go off the beaten track or out to sea, you should take local advice about weather conditions and have suitable specialist equipment. Because of Norway’s northerly latitude the weather can change rapidly, producing Arctic conditions even in summer on exposed mountain tops. The winter is long (it can last well into April) and temperatures can drop to minus 25 degrees C and below. Winter visitors should bring warm clothes and practical footwear to cope with icy roads and pavements. Special clamp-on grips (brodder) to give extra security in icy conditions can be bought locally. |
