Understand Shipping to Norway

When shipping goods to Norway, it's crucial to understand the specific rules for shipping and import. Goods with a value over 3,000 NOK must be cleared through customs and require proper documentation such as an invoice and certificate of origin. Freight rates can vary depending on the weight, size and destination of the goods, and it's important to ensure all regulations are met to avoid delays or extra costs at the border.

Customs when trading with Norway

When trading with Norway, you need to be aware of the applicable customs rules. Duty rates vary depending on the type of goods and country of origin. Norway is not a member of the EU, which means that customs clearance is required for most goods. Import VAT of 25% applies to most goods, and certain products may also be subject to special taxes, such as alcohol and tobacco.

Liable representative

If your business operates in Norway without a physical presence, it may be necessary to appoint a liable representative. A liable representative is responsible for ensuring that your business complies with Norwegian VAT and tax regulations, as well as any customs obligations. This is especially important for businesses that trade large quantities of goods or want to establish a stronger presence in the Norwegian market.
