Norway Practical information

Travel insurance

If you’re an EU citizen, an E111 form (available from health centres, or post offices in the UK) covers you for most medical care, except nonemergencies or emergency repatriation home. Citizens from other countries should find out if there is a reciprocal arrangement for free medical care between their country and Norway. If you do need health insurance, strongly consider a policy that covers you for the worst possible scenario, such as an accident requiring an emergency flight home. If you’re planning on engaging in activities such as hiking, dog-sledding, skiing, rock climbing or more high-speed pursuits such as bungee jumping, make sure that your insurance policy doesn’t exclude such ‘dangerous’ activities. Find out in advance if your insurance plan will make payments directly to providers or reimburse you later for overseas health expenditures. The former option is generally preferable, as it doesn’t require you to pay out of pocket in a foreign country.
