Hi everyone,

My partner and I are considering a move to Norway as I have been offered a job in Bergen however I am having trouble sourcing an answer regarding tax and foreign assets. Can anyone tell me if it is possible when filing a tax return in Norway, to claim a deduction on the Norwegian income for losses on foreign investment properties?

Hi, Unfortunately I do not know anything about foreign investment properties. I do know, as a foreigner you can receive a tax exemption from 10% of your salary for the first 2 years working/residing in Norway. ALso, be sure you are in the correct tax category if your partner is unemployed. You will receive a higher tax refund! I think the max is around 12,000,- per year.

Thanks Ky. I will have a look at the Skatteetaten website. I was aware of the 10% tax deduction for newcomers to Norway but not about the tax category with an unemployed partner so thank you for that as well.
