VAT, employees and ID cards in Norway

VAT representative in Norway

Companies that sell goods or services in Norway must register for VAT once sales pass NOK 50,000 in 12 months. Without a place of business in Norway, they register through a VAT representative. We are registered for VAT and can be your representative, handle the registration and file your VAT returns.

Registration of employees in Norway

Everyone who does paid work for your company in Norway must be registered in the Register of Employers and Employees (Aa register) through the a-melding. We prepare the documents to register each employee, help them get a D number and a tax card, and explain your duties as an employer.

HMS cards (ID cards)

Everyone who works on building and construction sites, or in cleaning or car care, must have an HMS card (ID card). We submit the documents your company needs to be allowed to order the cards, then order a card for each employee.

At Norus Accounting, we make taxes clear and manageable, so foreign businesses in Norway can meet legal requirements with confidence and make well-informed financial and business decisions.

Norus Regnskapsbyrå has the knowledge, enthusiasm and interest in their profession that many accounting firms should seek. They have a good mood and when they also master Russian - Baltic - English and fluent Norwegian, this was our obvious choice. as we, like so many, have many skilled employees, including foreign workers. We have been fortunate to have Andrey Lapshin as our permanent contact person. and it has been “fun” to work with accounting and paperwork.
