Entry restrictions discontinued
The statutory requirement to obtain a negative test prior to travel and the requirement to register entry into Norway upon arrival have both been discontinued.
Rules for travel to Svalbard
When travelling to Svalbard, there remains a requirement in place to obtain a negative COVID-19 test prior to departure from the Norwegian mainland. However, this does not apply to those who can document that they are permanent residents of Svalbard, or are otherwise able to present a COVID-19 certificate demonstrating that they meet specific requirements in terms of vaccination or a recent COVID-19 infection.
All people arriving in Svalbard must still take a SARS-CoV-2 test within 24 hours of their arrival.
