Completion of customs clearance documents

Private individuals must fill in customs documentation for all types of shipments abroad, except postcards and regular letters. The information must now be digitally recorded due to common rules between the countries.

For both letters and parcels, you can fill in address labels and customs papers via our web solution. This is cheaper than if Posten registers it for you.

  • Letters to Svalbard and Jan Mayen: For all letters containing more than an ordinary letter or content with value, you fetch a self adhesive form at Posten to be filled out with sender, receiver and a specification of the content.
  • Parcel to Svalbard and Jan Mayen: Use Norgespakke™, and in addition you need customs papers. Fill out this customs invoice and bring it with you to Posten. Address label for the Norgespakke™ can be purchased online.
