Prohibited content and restrictions

You are solely responsible for what you send is not prohibited to send to that country.

Here is a overview of what is allowed to ship to each country.

Customs regulations and  clearance costs

All shipments sent out of Norway must be customs cleared. The customs authority, both in Norway and in the recipient countries, requires that various customs documentation are attached to your shipment. If information is missing or if the documents are incomplete, the shipment may be delayed. As the sender, you are responsible for adding the correct information about your shipment.

Essentially, all consignments containing more than one regular letter must be processed in customs. Parcels must undergo customs clearance when (reason):

  • The value of the contents is in excess of NOK 5000
  • In the case of temporary export, e.g. when an item has to be sent abroad for repair and will be returned after the repair has been carried out
  • When returning items, e.g. when returning an item to an overseas address following a complaint

Customs clearance is included in the prices (postage) you pay for sending letters abroad.
