Tourist Info Norway - Svalbard |
Information:
In March 2001 the four nordic countries joined the "Schengen Agreement".
While this removes border checks from Europe to Scandinavia and within these
countries, it requires that travellers returning from Svalbard (which is not part
of the "Schengen area") to Norway or another EU country have to carry
official passports with them. Domestic european identity cards are not sufficient.
