Apply for a Visit Visa to Norway - Basis for a Visit Visa I have read the visa requirements for Norway, and it seems that there is no specific mention of a tourist visa. I only see visit and official visas. I wonder if I can still apply for a tourist visa? If I can only apply for a visit visa, what does the invitee need to clearly write in the invitation letter? Provide accommodation? His address? What else? In addition, Norway allows for mail-in applications, but I don't know how long it usually takes. Furthermore, there is no difference between a visit visa and a tourist visa, right? I would be extremely grateful to all the experts ? Norway Q&A
My friend and I arrived in Tromso yesterday. We drove from the airport to the hotel, went through the local tunnel, and accidentally drove through the parking lot. When we entered the parking lot, we took the parking card, and when we left, we inserted the parking card and credit card, but there was no display of deductions. Is this considered as driving through without parking, and we don't need to consider the parking fee problem ? Norway Q&A

Excuse me, have you booked the train, ferry and shuttle bus tickets for flam online on foreign websites? We have tried to book for many days, but we cannot book them after putting them in the shopping cart, and the page keeps spinning without showing anything until the time runs out. We have tried using different browsers and computers at home and the office, but it doesn't work. Taobao can be bought, but it's much more expensive. How did you solve this problem ? Norway Q&A

I picked up the car at Oslo Airport Europcar. In addition to the order amount, I also need to pay for a package, 60 NOK per person per day. It's not insurance. Do you know what it is ? Norway Q&A
Oh, by the way, why does gas only get pre-authorized, but not deducted from the card? We pre-authorized our other car first, and the pre-authorization was returned to the card after the gas was deducted. This Norwegian deduction can really confuse people. ? Norway Q&A
My credit card is a magnetic stripe card, not a chip card. I wonder if everyone rents a car in Bergen, Lofoten, and Tromso. Are the tolls and fuel self-service? Self-service requires a chip credit card ? Norway Q&A
Can you guys please tell me, is it better to rent a car in Bodø and take the ferry to the Lofoten Islands, or should we take the ferry to Moskenes and rent a car from the harbour there? I heard that car rentals are very expensive on the islands! Thank you! ? Norway Q&A
Can you please help me? I am driving around the Lofoten Islands and will be in Stavanger from Oct 4-6. I do not plan to rent a car for those days. I plan to do a day trip to Preikestolen on Oct 5. When I look at the booking sites for the day trip, they do not offer ferry + bus package after Oct 1. However, I see from many travel blogs that many hikers still visit Preikestolen in Oct and Nov. Can you please tell me which ferry terminal do I need to go to on Oct 5 to get to Preikestolen from Stavanger? Where can I find out the ferry schedule? Is the bus from Preikestolen still running? Where can I find out the bus schedule? Thank you so much for your help ? Norway Q&A
Guys, I have a question. When I went to Norway in 2016, on the way to a very famous glacier in Geiranger's south, on the road to the village at the foot of the glacier, there was a narrow road along the lake with a short cylindrical tunnel. The tunnel was pitch black and had no lights. I think any driver who went to that glacier must have had a deep impression; at the entrance to this tunnel, I almost had a traffic accident because there was only one way in and out, and there were no lights. When I went back, a car came out of the tunnel in front of me, and we almost collided. I wonder how you safely passed through ? Norway Q&A
