Motor vehicles:
Use in Norway of motor vehicles registered abroad


Printer friendly version

If you are resident abroad, you may use a foreign-registered motor vehicle in Norway. This applies to persons who are temporarily employed in Norway, and to persons who commute between a place of work in Norway and their place of residence abroad.


Before a foreign-registered car can be used in Norway, certain conditions must be met.

It is not permitted to import motor vehicles into Norway duty-free as household goods. The vehicle must in the vast majority of cases be cleared through customs and registered with Norwegian license plates.

If you are in doubt about whether you are entitled to drive a foreign-registered vehicle in Norway, you should contact the Norwegian Customs and Excise. Any violation of the rules will mean that duty must be paid on the vehicle. Additional amounts may also be added to the amount of the duty.

Duty free importation and temporary use
The rules governing duty free importation and temporary use are given in the regulation relating to duty-free importation and temporary use of foreign-registered motor vehicles in Norway. The regulation also applies to foreign-registered trailers and caravans.

The principal rule is that a foreign-registered motor vehicle may only be used by a person who is permanently resident outside Norway. The motor vehicle may moreover not be used for commercial transport in Norway.

Exception for commuters
Persons who commute between Norway and another country or who are resident in Norway temporarily may use foreign-registered motor vehicles. This applies to those who commute to work in Norway from abroad. The conditions are that the person either commutes daily, or stays abroad for at least 185 days in the course of 12 months. The person must not have a spouse or a child aged under 18 resident in Norway.

Persons who are resident in Norway, but have a spouse or a child aged under 18 resident abroad, may also use foreign-registered motor vehicles in Norway. The condition is that he or she regularly visits the spouse or child abroad, normally at least once a month. A further requirement is that the person has a common domicile with the persons abroad.

If you satisfy these conditions, you need not apply to the Norwegian Customs and Excise for a driving permit. You should have documentation in the vehicle showing that you satisfy the conditions. Examples of such documentation are given in Section 8 of the regulation.

Temporary residence in Norway
If you will be staying for a maximum of one year in Norway, you need not apply to the Norwegian Customs and Excise for a driving permit. You must have the documentation of your temporary residence with you in the vehicle. If your stay is extended, so that your period of residence in Norway is up to two years, you must apply for a driving permit. The application must be sent to the Norwegian Customs and Excise before you have stayed in Norway for one year. If changes in your terms of employment take place in the course of the one-year period, you must promptly notify the Norwegian Customs and Excise.

If when entering Norway you can document that your stay in Norway will not exceed two years, you must apply to the Norwegian Customs and Excise for permission to drive a foreign-registered vehicle. The documentation required may for instance be a contract of employment. Note that a trial period is not counted as temporary employment.

It is a condition for obtaining a driving permit according to Section 4 of the regulation that you have not stayed in Norway, or been registered in the Norwegian population register, for more than 365 days in the course of the last two years prior to your entry into Norway.

You can also contact the Customs and Excise information centre, telephone number 0 30 12. If you are phoning from abroad, you can contact the Customs and Excise at + 47 22 86 08 50.

Value limitation


If you exceed the limit of NOK 6000/3000 you may yourself decide which articles you wish to pay custom and excise duties for. If the value of one single item is in excess of this limit, duty has to be paid on the entire price of this item. Goods that form a unit may not be split up into individual parts, neither may they be imported distributed over several trips or carried by several different persons, even if the value of one of these individual parts may be less than NOK 6000/3000. If you are unable to produce proof of value, a receipt for example, the customs authorities will determine the value at their discretion.

!!!!!!!!!!:

Repairs done abroad including vehicle repairs are subject to the NOK 6000/3000 limit. If the repair has been more expensive than NOK 6000/3000, duties have to be paid on the entire repair price
