  2. Add “Foretaksregisteret” if your business is registered there.
  3. Add your client and their organisation number for business sales.
  4. List goods or services and pick MVA at 25%, 15% or 12%.
  5. Add your bank account; the KID reference is generated from the invoice number. Download the PDF.

What a Norwegian invoice must include

  • Issue date, a unique sequential number and the due date.
  • Your organisation number, followed by the letters MVA if you are registered in the VAT register.
  • The word Foretaksregisteret if your business is registered there (required for AS and many others).
  • Seller and buyer names and addresses, the date and place of delivery.
  • Quantity and description, the amount excluding VAT, the MVA rate and amount.

Keep sales documents for five years under the Bookkeeping Act.

MVA rates and the registration threshold

  • 25%: general rate.
  • 15%: food and drink (not alcohol or restaurant meals).
  • 12%: passenger transport, accommodation, cinema, some cultural and sporting events.

You must register for VAT once taxable sales pass NOK 50,000 over a 12-month period. Below that, charge no MVA and leave “MVA” off your organisation number. Check Skatteetaten for the current rules.

KID numbers and EHF e-invoices

Norwegian customers expect a KID number, a payment reference with a check digit that their bank uses to match payments automatically. The template generates a KID (MOD10) from the invoice number; make sure your bank KID agreement accepts the length and check method. Public-sector buyers require EHF e-invoices, which is Peppol BIS 3.0. Invoiceferry can download a Peppol BIS 3.0 XML file but does not send it through Peppol; use an access point provider. Norway has proposed making e-invoicing mandatory between businesses; no date had been finally set at the time of writing.

Line items
Tax, discount & shipping
Tax
More: pension contribution, recargo, ROT/RUT

Italy: rivalsa INPS (4 %) or a professional fund’s contribution, added to the net amount and taxed with it.

Sweden: mark the labour lines with “Mark as labour” in each line’s ⋯ menu. The deduction is worked out on labour including VAT and taken off the amount to pay. Add the buyer’s personnummer (and fastighetsbeteckning for ROT) in the notes.

Tax is calculated after the discount; shipping is added untaxed. Withholding tax (such as Spain’s IRPF or Italy’s ritenuta d’acconto) is taken off the amount your client pays you. Tax rules differ by country — check which rates and details apply to you.

Payment & notes

Made from the invoice number and printed on the invoice, so your bank can match the payment.

Poland: VAT on a foreign-currency invoice is also shown in złoty, at the NBP average rate from the last business day before the date of supply.

    Frequently asked questions

    Why does “MVA” follow my organisation number?

    It shows the buyer you are in the VAT register and allowed to charge MVA. Leave it off if you are not registered.

    Do I need to write Foretaksregisteret?

    Yes, if your business is registered in the Register of Business Enterprises. It applies to all limited companies and many other businesses.

    What is a KID number?

    A customer identification number with a MOD10 or MOD11 check digit that the payer enters in their bank. The template generates a MOD10 KID from the invoice number.

    What is EHF?

    The Norwegian name for e-invoices in Peppol BIS 3.0 format. Public buyers require it. Invoiceferry creates the XML file but does not send it.

    What are the VAT rates in Norway?

    25% general, 15% for food and drink, and 12% for passenger transport, accommodation and some culture and sport.
