She said that there will be exceptions for sailors and crews, but workers from countries outside the European Economic Area will be barred from entering.
Norway has the strictest rules in Europe for the arrival of foreigners, and now it sees the need to restrict entry from the European Economic Area, where a more infectious variant of the virus is spread, the government said.
