Hvitkort

Hvitkort, literally meaning “white card” in Norwegian, is a term used to refer to several different white-coloured official cards that serve identification, access, or eligibility purposes. It does not denote a single standardized document; the exact form and use vary by country, region, and time.

In public administration and welfare services, some municipalities or agencies have used white cards as proof of entitlement or as temporary identification for individuals who lack other papers. These cards may grant access to certain services or function as a bridge while more formal documentation is being processed.

In health and safety contexts, white cards have appeared as passes to facilities or as placeholders for information such as vaccination status, medical eligibility, or safety training. However, modern systems often rely on other, officially named documents issued by health authorities or employers.

In sports and events, a white card may be part of disciplinary, registration, or access procedures depending on the rules of a league or organization. Color coding of cards is not standardized across all sports, and different federations may use different designations for warnings, penalties, or entries.

Because the meaning of “hvitkort” is used informally across different sectors, the precise card, its validity, and requirements depend on the specific institution and jurisdiction. For accurate information, consult the relevant authority or organization that issues the card in question.
