Brief information concerning tax-free employment income for children under 13
Specify employment income up to NOK 10,000 to children under 13 at the end of the income year.
The tax-free threshold amount concerns the total employment income, not per employer. If the threshold amount is exceeded, the surplus amount will be taxable.
The tax exemption applies to income earned through specific work. Passive fees, such as for the photography of babies for advertising purposes, are not covered.
Tax-free salary up to NOK 10,000 from one employer does not prevent tax-free salary below the reporting obligation threshold from another employer.
