Norway Customs Regulations for Shipping from the UK
 
Norway’s customs are managed by the Norwegian Customs Service (Tolletaten) under the Ministry of Finance. As an EEA member but not EU, Norway applies its own tariffs, with no free trade agreement with the UK as of 2025 (post-Brexit UK-Norway trade deal lapsed EU benefits). Compliance with the TVINN system and various agencies is key for Send2Hub shipments.
 
1. Customs Clearance Process
  • Declaration: Filed via TVINN; Import Declaration required for taxable goods.
  • Inspection: Tolletaten checks for tax, safety, and Norwegian compliance.
  • Duty/Tax Payment: Based on CIF value (cost, insurance, freight).
2. Required Documentation
  • Commercial Invoice: Details goods, value, and parties (in English or Norwegian).
  • Packing List: Outlines contents, weight, and quantity.
  • Bill of Lading (Sea) or Air Waybill (Air): Proves transport; includes freight costs.
  • Permits: For restricted items (e.g., Mattilsynet for food, Helsedirektoratet for meds).
  • Certificate of Origin: Optional but aids tariff classification.
3. Duties and Taxes
  • Duty-Free Threshold: Goods under NOK 350 (CIF, including shipping) avoid duties and VAT; above this, full rates apply.
  • Import Duties: 0-25% via HS codes (e.g., 10% on electronics); food/agriculture higher (50-300%).
  • VAT (MVA): 25% (CIF + duty); 15% for food, 0% for books.
  • Customs Fees: NOK 50-200 for processing, depending on value.
4. Prohibited and Restricted Items
  • Prohibited: Narcotics, counterfeit goods, weapons without permits, and hazardous materials.
  • Restricted:
    • Food: Mattilsynet approval (e.g., no fresh meat without certs).
    • Medicines: Helsedirektoratet permit for drugs.
    • Alcohol/tobacco: High duties (e.g., NOK 290/liter spirits) and permits.
    • Plants/animals: NVH (Norwegian Food Safety Authority) docs.
    • Electronics: Must meet Norwegian safety standards.
5. HS Codes and Valuation
  • HS Codes: Norway uses Harmonized System (e.g., a sweater might be 6110.11). Check Tolletaten tariff.
  • Valuation: CIF value; under-declaring risks fines or seizure.
6. Practical Tips
  • Prepay Taxes: Posten Norge or couriers like DHL can manage this.
