3. Declaration
Digitoll/declaration must be used by all those transporting goods into Norway.
Declarations are submitted before border crossing in TVINN and NCTS for transit.
Businesses must deal with two submission paths, one in TVINN/NCTS and one in theDigitoll API’s.
4. Exceptions when using Digitoll
From January 1, 2024, VOEC (VAT On E-Commerce) shipments must be digitally reported to Norwegian Customs before arrival in Norway. The notification can be submitted through the digital reporting and disclosure of information solution (MO). At the same time, there is currently no requirement for other shipments to be digitally reported. This presents some challenges for transport carrying both VOEC shipments and other shipments that are not digitally reported.
