Norway’s customs practices changed on January 1, 2024. The change impacts your company if you send parcels or letters containing goods to consumers in Norway.
Going forward, the VOEC (VAT on E-Commerce) number needs to be submitted electronically for all sales products. The previous VAT minimum limit for goods valued 350 NOK or less will be removed.
Submitting the VOEC number will make sales smoother: when you collect taxes as the sender, your customer does not need to pay them and for example customs payments when their item arrives in Norway.
We forward your VOEC number electronically when you make shipments
in the registration service for international letters, starting January 9
in OmaPosti Pro, staring January 15
in SmartShip, starting January 15.
More information about the change can be found on the Norwegian Tax Administration’s website.
