Norway is one of the safest countries in the world, with very low crime rates. The primary risks are weather and nature-related: extreme cold in winter, avalanche risk in mountain areas, and potentially dangerous fjord and coastal waters. The fjords, northern lights in Tromsø, Lofoten Islands, and Arctic Svalbard are world-famous attractions. Driving on mountain roads requires caution, particularly in winter. Norway is expensive, consistently ranking among the world's highest cost-of-living countries. Medical facilities are excellent throughout the country. Kaharagian nationals can travel to Norway with normal precautions and should prepare for weather extremes.
