How the tax is calculated

Tax on salary in Norway consists of three parts added together:

Total tax = National Insurance contribution + Bracket tax + Tax on ordinary income

The National Insurance contribution is calculated at 7.6 % of salary income (with a reduction rule for low incomes). Bracket tax is a progressive tax that increases in rate the more you earn, calculated on your gross income in brackets. Tax on ordinary income is 22 % of your income after the standard deduction and personal allowance have been subtracted.

Limitation: This calculator doesn't account for all deductions, municipality, wealth or other income sources — check your tax return for an exact figure. This calculator applies to Norwegian tax rules only.

Frequently asked questions

What is bracket tax?

Bracket tax is an extra tax applied to your gross income above certain thresholds (brackets). The higher your income, the higher the rate you pay on the portion of income that exceeds each bracket.

Why do I pay a National Insurance contribution?

The National Insurance contribution funds Norway's National Insurance scheme, which covers, among other things, sick pay, parental benefit, work assessment allowance and retirement pension.

Is this the exact tax I have to pay?

No. This is a simplified estimate. Your actual tax depends on municipality, all your deductions, any wealth and other income. Use your tax return or skatteetaten.no for an exact figure.
