See how much child benefit you get per month and per year in Norway, based on the number of children and whether you live in an area with the Finnmark/North Troms/Svalbard supplement.
Standard child benefit is a fixed, tax-free rate per child aged 0-18, regardless of income. Families where both the parent and child live in Finnmark, selected municipalities in North Troms, or Svalbard receive an extra supplement per child. Child benefit is paid out monthly by NAV.
Child benefit is normally given automatically to whoever the child lives with permanently, from birth until the child turns 18. Most people don't need to apply — NAV sends the decision automatically at birth or a registered move.
No, child benefit is tax-free and doesn't affect your tax settlement.
Standard child benefit is given for all children aged 0-18. Extended child benefit is an additional benefit for single parents that gives child benefit for one more child than they actually have, and is calculated separately by NAV.
