Registration obligation - foreign limited companies

All foreign businesses in Norway are subject to a number of registration obligations.

All entities that carry on business activity in Norway or on the Norwegian continental shelf through a sole proprietorship must have a Norwegian identity and organisation number. The same applies to those who only have employees who work in Norway.

The assignment and employment register contains information concerning assignments awarded to foreign business and the employees who are working on each contract.

Foreign businesses selling goods or services subject to VAT within Norway, are liable for VAT. They need to be registered in the VAT-register.

If your business do not have any place of business, you must be registered in the VAT-register through a fiscal representative. Soliditet can be your fiscal representative.
