About the Norway passport

Alongside Belgium and Denmark, it sits among the world's strongest travel documents. Holders cover 81% of the world without advance visa arrangements, placing them well above the global average. That figure breaks down as: 119 require no visa at all, 11 accept an electronic travel authorization, 31 offer visa on arrival.

Tax in Norway

Norway applies a top marginal income tax rate of 47% and a capital gains tax rate of 37.84%. The country operates a high tax regime, under which residents pay tax on worldwide income at high marginal rates. Those considering Norway for relocation should account for the high worldwide income tax exposure when structuring international income.
