Hi, I am new to the forum, i have an issue that's been bugging me for a long time, i haven't actually been abroad anyway but i not just feel lost about it all with my common assault conviction (section 39).

I am nervous about going anyway, but with having this over me as well makes it feel even worse as i am very scretchy about where i can / cannot go without any issues.

my conviction is spent after this September time, can't remember the exact date, does that matter at all? i know mine is classed as spend after 5 years but wondered if once spend do i not have to declare it for any holiday i go on?

the main two questions i have as well as the above is going to the below places (both with or without a spent conviction, as i don't know the date this year i would be going)

Am i right in assuming i can go anywhere in Europe without having to worry about letting them know?

And also is Norway classed in the same way or would i have an issue going there? i know Iceland is in the EU but i don't think Norway is, can anyone let me know on both things?

Thanks

Dave.
