Norwegians with Swedish property threaten legal action over travel restrictions

by Nadarajah Sethurupan

A group of Norwegians are threatening a lawsuit against their home country over its Covid-19 travel restrictions that they say prevent them from visiting property they own in Sweden.

Right now, much of Sweden is deemed a high transmission area for the virus by Norwegian health officials, meaning travellers coming from Sweden are required to quarantine for 10 days upon arrival in Norway.
