From September 12, close family members and romantic partners of Norwegian residents will finally be able to enter Norway from countries outside the EU/EEA
Despite loosening the entry restrictions, Solberg announced a delay in the planned relaxation of coronavirus measures within the country.
Previously it had been announced that Norway's"fourth phase" of reopening would take place in mid-September. But since that announcement, infection numbers have spiked to record levels throughout the country driven largely by infection within student communities. "Further opening now gives the risk of more infection. We will not take that risk when there is such a short time left before all adults have been given the opportunity to protect themselves with a vaccine," said Solberg. As of August, just 57.27% of Norway's population had been fully vaccinated.
Solberg added that when vaccination rates are sufficiently high, Norway would move directly to a normal condition, skipping the planned fourth phase. Until then, restrictions including mandatory registration at public venues, limits on public event capacities and a strong recommendation to work from home will continue.
