Payroll In Norway
Here’s what you need to know to run payroll in Norway.
Payroll Administration
Norway has a Pay As You Earn (PAYE) tax system in place, which requires employers to pay employees after deducting payroll taxes. Employers must electronically obtain an employee's tax deduction card from the tax administration. Most Norwegian residents who do not have trading income must file annual tax returns by April 30th.
Employee Benefits Management
Employers are responsible for developing an annual leave policy that complies with the statutory annual leave mandated by law. They are also responsible for approving or canceling requests for non-annual leave (e.g. sick leave). Employers frequently provide additional benefits (i.e. fringe benefits) to employees in addition to their standard salary.
Payroll Compliance
According to the Norwegian Working Environment Act (2005), all employees are entitled to a written employment contract outlining their working hours, responsibilities, salary, and working conditions.
