Domestic Transfer

Domestic Transfer is a simplified transfer service for certain travelers arriving from abroad who are flying onwards within Norway. If the journey qualifies for Domestic Transfer, checked baggage will be forwarded without you needing to handle it yourself at Oslo Airport.

You can use Domestic Transfer if:

  • You are arriving from abroad* and are flying onwards within Norway.
    (*some departure origins are excluded from the service; see separate list.)
  • The airlines you are traveling with are included in the Domestic Transfer service
    (see separate table below).
  • The entire journey is booked on a single through ticket.
  • The entire journey takes place on the same date (between 07:00 and 23:00).
  • You have checked baggage labeled with the final destination — not just to «OSL».
  • You are traveling with no animals or weapons.

How to use Domestic Transfer

  1. Follow the transfer signs
    When you exit the plane, follow the signs marked “Transfer” or “Connecting flights”.
  2. Go to gate D2
    At gate D2, you will find a yellow area marked “Domestic Transfer”.
  3. Shop before going through customs
    If you want to shop duty-free, you must do so before going through customs.
  4. Scan your boarding pass
    Scan your boarding pass at the gate and continue through customs.
  5. Find the gate for your domestic flight
    After customs, you will enter the domestic departure area. Check the information screens and follow the signs to your gate.

Questions and answers about Transfer

My baggage tag is only marked "OSL"

This means your baggage is only checked in to Oslo Airport, and you cannot use Domestic Transfer.

Pick up your baggage in the arrivals hall, go through customs, and check in the baggage again in the departures hall.

I have separate tickets for each flight

Domestic Transfer can only be used when the entire trip is booked on one continuous through ticket (i.e, your ticket shows the final destination, not the place where you change flights).

If you have separate tickets for each flight, you must collect any baggage, go through customs, and check in for the next flight. Please pay attention to boarding times. 

I have carry-on baggage only

If you are arriving from abroad, flying onwards within Norway, and qualifying for Domestic Transfer:

  • Follow the Domestic Transfer signage to your next flight. 

If you are arriving from abroad, flying onwards within Norway, but not qualifying for Domestic Transfer:

  • Go through the arrivals hall and security screening again.

I have bought tax-free goods or other liquids

Ask for the items to be sealed if you are changing flights. You may have to go through a new security screening.

The receipt must be visible in the sealed bag. You are responsible for ensuring that the items comply with the rules for carry-on baggage and liquids.

I am traveling with animals

You cannot use Domestic Transfer if you are traveling with animals, whether in the cabin or as checked baggage.

Go to the arrivals hall, collect the animal and any checked baggage, and go through customs. The animal and baggage must be checked in again before your next flight.

I travel with weapons

You cannot use Domestic Transfer when traveling with weapons.

Weapons and any other checked baggage must be collected in the arrival hall, cleared through customs, and checked in again before your next flight.
