Important information
Value added tax is linked to the turnover of goods and services. It applies to all turnover of goods and services, regardless of whether the enterprise is run by one or more persons.
When the turnover exceeds the limit of NOK 50,000, enterprises and most organisations must register in the Value Added Tax Register. For charitable and non-profit organisations, the limit is NOK 140,000.
Some goods and services are not subject to VAT. When we determine whether an enterprise or organisation must register, it is only the vatable part of the enterprise’s turnover that counts.
This page is meant for small and newly-established enterprises. It is not for, for example, public enterprises.
