Norway Considers Extending VAT Exemption for International Single-Item Post

Norway is proposing to extend the existing VAT exemption for international bulk mail to individual items sent abroad through Posten (Norway’s national postal service). The exemption has historically been unavailable for single items because destination couldn’t be confirmed at the point of sale, but digital receipts now make the necessary documentation possible. If adopted, the change would take effect 1 January 2027. The consultation documents can be found here (in Norwegian).
