Clearance Package Norway
Norway may be a close neighbour to the EU, but when it comes to customs, it is a different world. As a non-EU country, Norway applies its own tariff system, product codes, and VAT rules. Companies quickly discover that shipments which flow easily within the EU can stall at the Norwegian border without the right documentation, customs credit, or local know-how. The result: delayed deliveries, frustrated customers, and unnecessary costs.
With Gerlach’s Clearance Package Norway, cross-border trade becomes simple. We combine EU export procedures with Norwegian import clearance in one integrated service – eliminating the need for local registration, customs credit arrangements, or multiple service providers. Your goods move seamlessly from warehouse to customer, with one point of contact and full transparency along the way.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why can’t I just use standard EU export procedures for Norway?
Because Norway is not part of the EU customs union. This means full import procedures, Norwegian-specific tariff codes, duties, and VAT rules apply.
What is customs credit, and why is it important?
Customs credit allows goods to be released in Norway before duties and VAT are paid. Without it, shipments remain stuck at customs until payment is made. Gerlach provides this facility so you don’t need a Norwegian bank account or guarantee.
Do I need Norwegian VAT registration to sell goods into Norway?
No. Our package includes VAT registration and management, allowing you to sell into Norway without setting up a local entity.
Can the package support e-commerce businesses?
Yes. We provide solutions specifically for online retailers, including streamlined return handling and support for both B2B and B2C shipments.
