- Foreign businesses operating in Norway must register locally and obtain a Norwegian organisation number, often as a Norwegian-registered foreign company (NUF).
- Individuals involved in the business may need a Norwegian identification number to interact with authorities, access services, or handle tax matters.
- Norway issues two types of identification numbers: the national identity number (for residents) and the D number (for those with temporary or limited ties).
- A D number is required for foreign individuals working, conducting business, serving as board members, owning property, opening bank accounts, or receiving social security in Norway.
- D numbers are typically issued for stays under six months or when residency requirements for a national identity number are not met, and can be requested by public authorities on the individual’s behalf.
