Ban on entry of Russians into Norway comes into force

The ban on entry of people from Russia into Norway came into force on May 29, following the decision of the country's government announced last week.

According to the restrictions, those with tourist visas issued by Norway before regulations were tightened in 2022 or issued by another European country will be barred from entering the Scandinavian country.

Exceptions to the new entry restrictions will be made, including for people visiting close relatives in Norway or for Russians who work or study in Norway. Those who live along the border have border resident certificates. Other Russians who plan to enter Norway for tourism or "other non-essential purposes” will be refused entry.
