What a rude individual you are, and an uncalled for pedantic remark
Common sense dictates if you are visiting a specific country you do your own checks and perhaps check for local ailments that can affect the animal. Eg processionary caterpillars,sand flys in south of France.
Have you ever read the book L how to win friends and influence people?” By dale carnegie you may learn something.
Last 48 hours you have had a go at admin,and questioned someone who makes their living from outboard engines. For the last 30 years.
as another poster mentioned you can cross borders in Scandinavia and not know you have
Channa, I can only assume that you are having a bad day. Please don't take it out on me, it is most impolite, Please just ignore me, nevermind obsessively stalking my every post.
Have you taken a dog to Norway ? Well neither have I.
PS: do you travel widely with a dog? Well I do, but not yet to Scandinavia, and am as interested as the OP to hear about the realities of how that might work. A trip in the planning is to start with a crossing to Holland, visit a relative in Denmark then cross the Øresund bridge/tunnel into Scandinavia and see Sweden Finland, and Norway then return from there, possibly seeing some other Baltic countries as well,
My dog can woof in, so far, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Swiss, Croatian, Slovenian, Serbian, Bosnian, Austrian and even knows a few more Eastern European doggy dialects.
So far I have only ever been checked on re-entry to the UK, and complied with our additional procedures before returning.
If entering Norway directly from the UK it may be necessary to have the worming treatment beforehand, I do not know, but e.g
https://www.tripsavvy.com/taking-a-dog-to-norway-1626508 suggests it might. And once we are out of the EU, who knows, we may become a "third country" which would also mean having to notify the Norwegian District Office about the time and place of arrival at least 48 hours prior.
I really don't know, my vet doesn't either,the ferry companies possibly do, and I really don't expect it to be any problem, business as usual.
When entering via Sweden I can find no mention of needing anything more than an EU passport.
If entering Sweden over the bridge maybe just a passport showing the rabies jabs is all that is required. Try reading this:
This applies for movement of dogs, cats and ferrets from EU countries and from Andorra, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Northern Ireland, Norway, San Marino, Switzerland and the Vatican City.

Between Sweden and Norway no rabies vaccination is even required, they don't have it yet. We actually do have a version, in some of our bat population, but that isn't widely known, and you won't catch it unless you handle bats, as I sometimes do, under license, but I digress.

The OP asked about how it really works, I do not know and ISTM nobody has yet posted recent personal experience. It would be nice to hear some of that, rather than receive a very nasty ticking off from someone who might be suffering from other problems. That's more harsh than I've ever been before Channa, and I hope never to have to do it again, and if I do it will be by PM, not in public, it is most unpleasant, leaves a bad taste, and I hope that in general my posts are polite and moderate, albeit sometimes brusque.
You seem to have a vendetta against me for whatever reason. If I have rubbed you up the wrong way in the past, just forget it, life's too short, I like things calm and steady, which they almost always are here, apart from a very very few angry characters whom I ignore. You are one of them, and I suggest you just ignore me too and take out your bitterness on somebody else, if that makes you happy.
This is a discussion forum where varied opinions, knowledge and experience are shared. You may think you know it all, but nobody does know everything, I certainly don't. So please back off, learn to listen, and think carefully before you post abuse publicly for everyone to see, and to be preserved forever. If you continue to have a problem with me, as I do with your attitude, take it to PM, , but you don't seem to work that way, just blurt it out and speak your brains. Perhaps take a while before clicking that button, calm down and re-read after you have calmed down a little.
This is the last that I have to say on the matter. I'm not sure that there is an ignore facility here but if there is you will be the first entry, and I suggest you do the same with me.
