Summary
- Norway has released SAF‑T Accounting version 1.4, which will become mandatory from 1 January 2027, while allowing voluntary early adoption. The new version is fully backward compatible, enabling businesses to transition gradually without disrupting existing reporting processes.
- Previous versions (1.2 and 1.3) remain valid for financial years up to and including 2026, providing flexibility during the transition period. This phased approach reduces implementation risk and allows businesses to align upgrades with broader system changes.
- The updated format enhances standardized reporting of accounting data, improving the ability of tax authorities to perform efficient audits and data analysis. It further supports Norway’s broader strategy of digital tax administration and aligns with increasing use of structured data across compliance processes.
