Register or change bank account number for payments from the Tax Administration
To receive payments from the Tax Administration, you must register an account number. If you wish to change the account number, log in and change to a different account number.
We cannot make deposits to bank accounts other than the one you have chosen yourself.
Bank account numbers that require a KID number cannot be used.
Different approaches to changing account number
If a person has passed away, you, as the person responsible for the estate, can register which account the remaining balance should be paid to. You do this in the same way as when changing your own account number, but you must select the estate when logging in.
If you are unable to use this solution, you, as the person responsible for the estate, can fill out form RF-1520 New or changed account number for tax refunds and specify which account you want the remaining balance to be paid to.
Once the account is registered, you will receive a confirmation. You will be notified by email or SMS.
To register an account number for a deleted company, you must use a form in Altinn. Which form to use, depends on your role in the company, which accesses you’ve previously given and how the company was dissolved.
If all the company’s accounts are deleted and you have to register an account that does not belong to the company, we need to know who the owner of the account is.
- Use the form “Contact the Norwegian Tax Administration for tax payments and refunds” (RF-1306)
- Select the topic “Questions about payment details, or information about the registered account for payments to you”
You must state what the application concerns and include the name and organisation number of the company.
The last chairperson will have access to register or change the account number if a dissolution board has not been established.
- Log in to Altinn to find the company under “Deleted entities”
- Search for the form “New or changed bank account number for tax refunds” (RF-1520)
- Send the form for account registration directly from the company’s user
If you do not have a Norwegian BankID, you can log in with ID-porten and a PIN code to log in to the self-service solution.
If you’re not an online user, you can use the form kontoopplysninger (“account information” in Norwegian only) to change your account number.
You’ll receive a confirmation
You’ll receive a confirmation from us once the account is registered. If you’re an online user, you’ll receive an email or an SMS when the confirmation is ready.
If there is no registered account number
If we do not have your account number, we cannot pay the refund. If this applies to you, you’ll receive a separate letter from us.
