Simplified a-melding for charitable organisations and non-profit institutions

This service is intended for charitable organisations that engage a private individual to carry out an assignment where the salary expense is not part of commercial activity. 

Use the service to provide information about salary and advance tax deductions for employees when: 

the salary expenses per employee do not exceed NOK 80,000 during the year 

the total salary expenses for all employees do not exceed NOK 800,000 during the year 

Note! 
If the payments exceed the amounts above, you must not use this service. In this case, you must submit an ordinary a-melding (via a pay roll system or directly on skatteetaten.no). If you have already used this service and it turns out that you’re exceeding the limits, you can use the service for the rest of the year. 

You do not need to submit an a-melding for payments that do not exceed NOK 10,000 per employee during the year.
