The police encourage everyone to delay booking foreign holidays until they know that they have the necessary travel documentation to hand.

If you are travelling within the EU/EEA and Switzerland, you should apply for a national ID card. According to the police, these have a somewhat shorter delivery time.

If you are travelling to the United Kingdom, you should note that following Brexit, only Norwegian citizens with a right to remain in the UK may use a national ID card upon entry to the country. All other travellers must hold a valid passport that will remain valid for the duration of their stay.
