Form A05

Simplified a-melding for charitable or non-profit organisations (A05)

This form is intended for charitable organisations which engage a private individual to carry out an assignment where the salary expense is not part of commercial activity.

About this form

  • salary expenses per employee do not exceed NOK 80,000 during the year

Note!
You must not use this form if the payments exceed the above thresholds. If the payments exceed the thresholds, you must submit an ordinary a-melding (A02 or A01). If you have already used this form (A05) and it becomes apparent that you are above the thresholds, you must use form A05 for the rest of the year.

You do not need to submit an a-melding if payments do not exceed NOK 10,000 per employee during the year.
