Not necessarily. Iceland is part of the Schengen Area, which means visitors from many EU/EEA countries (and other visa-exempt nations) can enter for short stays without a special visa.
If you do come from a country that does require a Schengen visa, you’ll need to apply via the relevant embassy or consulate.
