Visa requirements for Norwegian citizens

A Norwegian passport

Visa requirements for Norwegian citizens are administrative entry restrictions by the authorities of other states placed on citizens of Norway. In February 2016, Norwegian citizens had visa-free or visa on arrival access to 172 countries and territories, ranking the Norwegian passport 6th in the world (tied with Canada, Ireland, Luxembourg, Portugal, and Switzerland).^[1]

In order to travel to another country, a Norwegian citizen requires a passport, except within the Nordic Passport Union, where no identity card is formally required. An identity card such as a Norwegian driving license is however useful.
