How to report before arrival

The captain of a vessel crossing into Norwegian territorial waters must notify the police of its presence while the vessel is underway to its first Norwegian port of call.

Notice must be given no less than 24 hours before the vessel crosses the maritime baseline (comes very close inshore).

The captain's report must contain a list of all passengers and crew.

How to report before departure

The captain of a vessel that is due to leave a Norwegian port and cross out of Norwegian territorial waters must notify the police well before its scheduled departure time.

The captain's report must contain an updated list of all passengers and crew.

Any questions about giving notice?

If you have any questions about reporting crew and passenger lists, contact the police district responsible for the vessel's port of call or approved border crossing.

Any questions about SafeSeaNet (SSN)?

If you cannot log in via SafeSeaNet, you must send the crew and passenger (pax) lists directly to the police district responsible for the vessel's first port of arrival/last port of departure.

Contact the Norwegian Coastal Administration if you have any questions about the SafeSeaNet portal.
