Schengen visa to Norway

Norway resumed the representation agrement, for Schengen visas in Ethiopia, with Sweden on 1 December 2021. Local restrictions and the changes in the pandemic situation may affect the customer service.

In Ethiopia Sweden cooperates with VFS Global. Applications for Schengen visas to Sweden/Norway should be handed in at VFS. More information can be found on Welcome to VFS Global | vfsglobal

It is the applicant’s own responsibility to find out about current entry restrictions and other relevant entry conditions in the destination country. A Schengen visa is not a guarantee to enter the Schengen states and it is the border police of the member state that has the final say. If there is an entry ban in place, the person must be exempted from an entry ban to be able to enter the Schengen state.
