If you are permanently domiciled abroad and would like to hunt in Norway, you do not need to pass the hunter's test or shooting qualification test if you satisfy the licensing requirements for similar hunting in your country of residence. If you are intending to hunt in Norway, you must send your foreign hunting licence and your name, date of birth and postal address to the Norwegian Register of Hunters. This documentation must be sent by e-mail, fax or letter well in advance of your planned hunting trip.
Anybody who wants to hunt in Norway must pay the hunting
licence fee to the Wildlife Fund (Viltfondet). This includes
foreign nationals. This fee must be paid before you will be
allowed to hunt, but it does not confer the right to hunt
in any terrain. In addition to the hunting licence, you
must have permission from the owner of the land where you
intend to hunt. The hunting licence fee covers an entire
hunting season (1 April to 31 March).
You can both order and pay for the hunting licence on our website. If you pay by credit card, you can printout a temporary receipt that is valid for 30 days. You must take this receipt with you when you go hunting until you receive the hunting licence in the mail.
