One Norwegian partner for the whole move
Moving an employee into Norway touches several agencies and several vendors: UDI for the work permit, the police for registration, Skatteetaten for the tax card and A-melding, NAV for social security, the bank for the account and BankID, and the housing market for everything that holds a family together. Every hand-off is a chance for the move to slip. We consolidate the whole lifecycle into one agreement, one portal and one point of contact.

Six service pillars cover the entire employee lifecycle in Norway.
Employer of Record (EOR)
Hire in Norway without setting up your own entity. We employ your hire on our partner’s Norwegian payroll, handle all employment-law compliance, tax and pension, and bill you a single monthly invoice covering salary, employer costs and the EOR fee.
- Fastest route into the Norwegian market
- Norwegian employment contract issued by the EOR partner
- You retain day-to-day work direction
- Payroll, OTP, sick leave and NAV reporting all handled
Payroll and Compliance
If you have a Norwegian entity (AS or NUF), we run the payroll cycle: A-melding submissions to Skatteetaten, OTP occupational-pension contributions, NAV reporting, holiday-pay calculation (feriepenger) and year-end statements.
- Monthly A-melding to Skatteetaten
- OTP occupational pension scheme setup
- Feriepenger (holiday pay) calculation
- NAV sick-leave coordination
- Annual income reporting
Immigration Sponsorship
Skilled Worker, Hurtigspor (Fast Track), Shortage Occupation, ICT, Researcher and Job Seeker filings, all submitted to UDI under Power of Attorney, with employer documentation collected via the portal.
- Direct UDI filings on your behalf
- Hurtigspor certification application where needed
- Family immigration filed in parallel
- Permit-renewal calendar with staged reminders
Corporate Mobility
End-to-end relocation for international hires: pre-departure briefings, immigration filing, arrival assistance, housing search, schooling, fødselsnummer or D-nummer, BankID, Skatteetaten setup, healthcare registration and ongoing settlement support.
- Pre-departure orientation for hire and family
- Airport pickup and arrival concierge
- Housing search via a verified rental network
- School and barnehage placement
- Spousal career-coaching add-on
Manpower (Future Concerns)
Our sister manpower brand sources international talent into Norwegian roles: software engineers, IT specialists, healthcare professionals, skilled trades and researchers. Candidates are pre-screened, English-speaking and routed straight into our immigration pipeline.
- Software engineers, data, DevOps, cybersecurity
- Nurses, doctors and allied health, especially shortage roles
- Engineers: mechanical, electrical, civil, subsea

Cultural Integration
Workplace orientation covering Norwegian work culture, communication norms, hytte culture, friluftsliv and the holiday calendar, designed to keep international hires productive and engaged through their first year.
- Arrival workshop for new hires and spouses
- Manager training on cross-cultural management
- Norwegian language sponsorship coordination
- Regular check-ins through year one
