The Norwegian identity card, commonly referred to as the national identity card (Norwegian: nasjonalt ID-kort, Northern Sami: ID-duođaštus) in Norway, is a non-compulsory biometric identity document issued since 30 November 2020.[4][5] It is one of two official identity documents issued by the Norwegian Police Service, the other being the Norwegian passport. It is only issued to Norwegian citizens, and may indicate citizenship so that it can be used as a travel document facilitating freedom of movement within the European Free Trade Association[6] and the European Economic Area.[7][8][9][10][11][3] For travel within the Nordic countries no identity documentation is legally required for Nordic citizens due to the Nordic Passport Union.
