Oslo RV Rental Compare

Norway is very welcoming to outdoor travel, but you can’t simply sleep anywhere in an RV. The right-to-roam (allemannsretten) gives people broad access to nature (including tent camping on uncultivated land), but it does not give unrestricted permission to drive or park a motorhome wherever you want. You must park where parking is permitted, and you must not drive or park on uncultivated land. If you’re parking overnight outside a campsite or designated motorhome stopover, follow a few key rules:

• Park legally (follow signs and local rules), and do not drive or park on uncultivated land.

• Keep at least 150 meters (about 500 feet) away from the nearest inhabited house or cabin.

• Don’t stay more than 2 nights in the same place unless you have permission (or you’re in a remote area).

Yes, a large number of companies allow for one-way rentals and these are a popular way to travel.

The summer months are the most popular, as winter in Scandinavia usually means driving in snow and limited daylight.

Driving above the Arctic Circle in late May through late July (depending on latitude) to experience the midnight sun is a popular experience. A trip to northern Norway from late September to March offers the best chance to see the northern lights (aurora borealis), when nights are dark enough.

Yes, Norway uses the AutoPASS electronic toll system, and all toll stations are automated. Your vehicle is registered via an AutoPASS tag (if fitted) or by license plate recognition, and charges are billed electronically. All visitors, regardless of nationality, are required to pay applicable tolls.

Most campers are fitted with an AutoPASS tag or are set up for AutoPASS billing. You will be required to pay the charges for any tolls incurred during your trip. If you’re renting, the rental company usually handles tolls (and often ferries) and charges you after the trip (often with an administration fee). If you’re driving your own foreign-registered vehicle, consider registering in advance (like Epass24) for smoother billing.

Many routes require you to take a car ferry at some point to cross a river or fjord. These are often short trips and are usually viewed as an extension of the road network. On most ferry routes you can pay using an AutoPASS tag (with some exceptions), and prices vary by route and by the vehicle size/length class used on that ferry.

There are specific license requirements for renting and driving a campervan in Norway, and they mainly depend on the vehicle’s weight. For campervans and motorhomes up to 3,500 kg (3.5t), a standard car license (Category B) is sufficient, while heavier motorhomes require a higher license category.

For foreign licenses, the rules differ depending on where your license was issued. If your license is not written in the Latin alphabet, you must carry an International Driving Permit (IDP) or an official translation.

Rental companies also set their own minimum age and driving-experience requirements (often between 21 and 25+, depending on vehicle type), so always check the supplier terms for your specific booking.
