About the Norway passport

At #3 globally out of 200 ranked passports, the Norway passport puts holders ahead of 99% of the world. Alongside Belgium and Denmark, it sits among the world's strongest travel documents. Like many countries, Norway extends citizenship to children of its nationals born abroad, making the passport potentially available to subsequent generations through descent.

Passport context

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.

Norway is a member of the European Union, granting holders the right to live, work, and study across 27 EU member states plus 4 Schengen associates.
