What are the current travel restrictions for Hammerfest?

Currently, Norway travel restrictions include travel to Hammerfest. Entry restrictions

Norway has lifted restrictions on entry into Norway for people resident in countries in the Schengen area, EU or EEA that have an acceptable level of infection. This means that residents of these countries will not be subject to quarantine when arriving to Norway. Nationals of these countries may still travel to Norway from other areas if they reside, work, or have property in Norway. Travelers who are not residents in the above-named countries may only travel to Norway for specific reasons, for example to begin work or study in Norway, provided that the work is imminent. In order to gain entry, they will need to bring a copy of a work contract. People coming to Norway to work on a temporary assignment you should also bring evidence of this. Those who come to Norway to work or study are required to follow the quarantine regulations. From January 1, UK nationals are no longer classified as EU/EEA nationals and will not be allowed entry to Norway, with the exception of individuals who are residents in another EU/EEA country or immediate family member of a Norwegian resident. Check UDI website for more details on these exceptions.

Entry is still restricted for most other travelers who are not nationals or residents of Schengen area, EU or EEA countries. All travelers arriving from high-risk countries must present a medical certificate with a negative COVID-19 PCR test results issued within 72 hours prior to arrival. Travelers must have a confirmed quarantine accommodation for the period of intended stay. From January 2, Norway has imposed mandatory testing for COVID-19 for all travelers. The test is also mandatory for Norwegian citizens. The test must be done as soon as possible, and within 24 hours after arrival at the latest at the airport or other border stations. If that is not possible, the traveler must contact the local municipality or another test center to arrange testing. Testing is free of charge. There are some exceptions from mandatory testing, including children under the age of 12, personnel with critical social functions, cross-border workers, long distance drivers and diplomats.
