Some of the changes that will take effect at 11pm tonight (Feb. 1) throughout Norway:
👉 There is no longer a recommendation for a limit on number of guests at home, nor is there a limit for events indoors or outdoors.
👉 At events with fixed seats, such as in the cinema, theater or in the church, the distance requirements are removed when sitting in the seat. This means that all seats in a hall can be used.
👉 Pouring stops and requirements for table service are removed.
👉 It is no longer a national recommendation for a yellow level in kindergartens and schools. Colleges, universities and vocational colleges are recommended to strive for full physical presence during teaching.
👉 Organized sports and leisure activities can now take place as normal both indoors and outdoors for all age groups, with contact where necessary.
👉 Amusement parks, playgrounds, gaming halls and the like can reopen.
👉 It will no longer be a requirement to facilitate a home office.
👉 The requirement to test oneself at the border for immigrants to Norway is removed.
