Customs
Norway is outside the EU and outside the EU customs union (though part of the EEA). Every shipment requires a customs declaration. Norwegian VAT at 25% applies from the first NOK (effectively from zero). Customs duty applies above 350 NOK (~€30). Norway's VOEC (VAT On E-Commerce) scheme allows registered sellers to include Norwegian VAT in the purchase price — the recipient pays nothing extra at delivery.
Required documents
- CN22 is a simplified customs declaration for parcels up to 2 kg and €270 in value. Completed at the post office or generated by the carrier. Without CN22, the parcel may be held at customs.
- CN23 is a full customs declaration for parcels over 2 kg or above €270. You must list each item's description, quantity, weight and customs value. Issued at the post office or generated by the carrier.
- Proforma invoice
- Seller's VOEC number (optional, speeds up customs clearance)

Frequently asked questions
How much does a parcel to Norway cost?
For a parcel up to 5 kg approximately €24–36 (DHL Economy / postal service), DHL Express from ~€48. Norway commands higher prices than EU destinations due to its non-EU status and geographic remoteness.
What is VOEC and does it affect me?
VOEC (VAT On E-Commerce) is Norway's scheme allowing foreign sellers to register with the Norwegian Tax Administration and pre-collect Norwegian VAT at checkout. Shipments from VOEC-registered sellers clear customs without additional charges. For private shipments from non-registered senders, the recipient pays 25% VAT at delivery.
