240-hour visa-free transit
Norway - China 240-hour transit eligibility
Norway stretches along the Atlantic with deep fjords cutting through its rugged coastline, and Norwegian passport holders can transit visa-free for up to 240 hours when arriving at Oslo (OSL) or Bergen (BGO). Located 6-7 hours behind Beijing and outside the EU, Norway’s EEA and Schengen ties don’t affect the eligibility for this transit benefit.
