Where the governments disagree on Norway

Opinion on Norway is divided, though not dramatically: ratings run from level 1 to level 2. Two of the ten take the stricter view, and the remaining eight see no cause for it. A one-level split of this kind usually reflects differing thresholds between governments rather than a dispute about the facts.

Currency varies between sources. New Zealand's is the oldest assessment of Norway on file, last revised in November 2024, while the rest have been reviewed more recently.

Your own government's rating is the one your insurer and embassy will act on, so read that source first — the one level of daylight between the strictest and most relaxed assessments here is context, not a substitute for it.

Derived from 10 government assessments for Norway, most recently reviewed in October 2026.
