To start an AS, you must meet the business requirements. You’ll find more information and good guidance for this by the Norwegian Tax Administration.
The Tax Administration does not assess whether you meet all the conditions, you must assess this yourself:
- The business is suitable for collecting profits.
- The business has a certain duration: There is no fixed requirement for how long you need to run, but you should have a plan to keep going for a while.
- The business has a certain scope: For it to be considered as a business activity, you need to work regularly.
- The business is run on its own account and at its own risk..
When you submit an application, you will be asked a few questions about what you will be doing and expected revenues and similar. It’s a good idea to have this ready before you start.
