Frequently asked questions

We handle the full process of establishing a company in Norway: incorporation and registration of an AS with Foretaksregisteret, a registered address and secretarial support, and ongoing tax, VAT and compliance work once the entity is trading. Everything runs through one point of contact rather than several separate providers.

Domiciliation means the entity has a registered address in Norway where official mail and government correspondence can be received and forwarded. Norwegian company law requires every registered entity to maintain such an address, and it also supports board meeting facilitation and day-to-day correspondence handling.

It depends on how independently you want the Norwegian operation to run and how you want liability structured. A subsidiary (typically an AS) is a separate Norwegian legal entity with its own registration, accounts and governance. A branch is an extension of the foreign parent company rather than a new legal entity. We talk through your commercial plans and recommend the structure that fits, then handle the registration either way. If you're weighing the same choice across several countries at once, see our entity setup services.

It covers the registered address itself, receiving and forwarding mail and government correspondence, and facilitating board meetings so statutory formalities are handled correctly even if your board isn't based in Norway. It keeps the entity reachable and compliant on the administrative side while you run the business.

Both. Some clients only need incorporation and registration and handle everything else themselves. Others want the full package: incorporation, domiciliation and secretarial support, and ongoing tax, VAT and compliance, plus Nordic Reach if they also operate in Sweden, Denmark or Finland. We scope the engagement to what you actually need.

Yes. VAT reporting is part of our ongoing tax and compliance service for Norwegian entities, alongside annual accounts, tax filings and shareholder registry maintenance. If your VAT and reporting needs extend beyond the initial setup into full ongoing bookkeeping, our accounting services team can take that on as well.
