Highlight
Norway applies a mandatory software-based fiscalization system for all cash sales, in force since January 1, 2017 (with a transition period until 2019). The official currency is the Norwegian Krone.
Norway
POS systems in Norway are not certified by the Tax Authority but must be declared compliant with full system documentation. The Declaration of Conformity must be submitted via the Altinn portal. A product declaration may only be issued by a supplier, defined as a manufacturer, importer, distributor, or other party that provides or modifies cash register systems for businesses. Importantly, the supplier must be independent from the business that uses the system. Every completed sale must be digitally signed and chained to the previous transaction, ensuring integrity and traceability. All continuous use of the cash register system must be registered in the Electronic Journal.
Type of fiscalization: Software
