How to set up a company in Norway?
Depending on the nature of your activity in Norway, the type of structure that best suits your project on the Norwegian market (liaison or representative office, subsidiary, branch), and the legal form of business in Norway that you will choose (sole proprietorship, limited liability company, etc...), the administrative procedures and formalities for the formation of the company in Norway may vary. Generally, the steps to create and register a company in Norway are:
- Choice of the legal form under Norwegian law and the social capital
- Drafting the company statutes in Norwegian.
- Opening a Norwegian bank account
- Registering the company in the Norwegian trade register
- Obtaining a Norwegian tax identification number
After these steps of creation, you will receive all the necessary legal documents attesting the legal existence of your company or subsidiary in Norway. Your Norway business will also have to meet the specific accounting requirements of Norwegian business law.
