Smoke in the open air outside the terminal, away from the doors, and ask staff for the nearest spot; otherwise smoke outside the airport property, beyond the terminal kerb and car parks. Norwegian law requires smoke-free air in every indoor space open to the public and makes no exception for a passenger smoking room in a terminal (Tobacco Control Act, Section 25). ## Outside the terminal The airport marks no smoking spot on its map, on the departures level above or the arrivals and rail level below. Smoke in the open air outside the building, away from the doors, and ask staff for the nearest place. ## After security The airport lists no smoking area after security, on the domestic side (gate areas A to C) or the international side (gate areas D to G). Ask staff; otherwise a cigarette during a connection means leaving the secure area by the arrivals route, with passport control on the way out if you arrived from outside the Schengen area, smoking in the open air outside and clearing security again. ## Vaping The airport publishes no rule for e-cigarettes or heated tobacco, so ask staff before using either; Norway’s rule on e-cigarettes is on our Norway guide below. ## Summary | Area | Smoking | Notes | | --- | --- | --- | | Inside the terminal | No | The airport lists no smoking room or area inside | | After security | Ask staff | The airport lists no smoking area in any gate area | | Outside the terminal, before security | Yes | Open air away from the doors; no spot marked, ask staff for the nearest | | Vaping and heated tobacco | Ask staff | No airport rule published | For Norway’s airport smoking law, the vaping rule and the other Norwegian airports, see our [Norway airport guide](https://www.airportsmokingzones.com/norway/). ## Useful Links - [Oslo Airport terminal map (Avinor, official)](https://www.avinor.no/en/airport/oslo/info/map/) - [Oslo Airport (Avinor, official)](https://www.avinor.no/en/airport/oslo/) ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Can you smoke at Oslo Airport?
