Until recently, entrepreneurs looking for business in other countries had to negotiate often cumbersome government and public-service sources of rules and regulations, in often unfamiliar languages, before addressing the practical challenges of doing business in another country. But all that has changed.

With the slogan “Your Europe – Your Business Opportunity”, the new portal offers all the relevant, time-saving information you’re likely to need in one, multi-lingual location. With “Your Europe”, you can learn how to register a company in Norway, how to hire staff; how the VAT and social insurance structures work, and which government services are available online.

And there’s more: Even particulars about the country in terms of responsible business practice, employee protection, sustainability, innovation policy and possible financing sources are given, as well as names and links to Norway’s official “Point of Single Contact” for businesses.

“Your Europe” is developed jointly by the European Commission and national authorities for businesses seeking access to markets in EEA countries. For more about taking your enterprise one step further, visit Your Europe – Business.
