What Norway may ask for

Not every traveller is asked for all of these. A valid passport is checked every time; the rest is a spot check at the border, and some items belong to a visa application rather than the crossing itself.

Travel insurance with €30,000 minimum medical coverage
Proof of sufficient funds (NOK 500/day recommended)
Confirmed accommodation for entire stay
