Foreign companies we have helped enter the Norwegian market

Footprint From Denmark to Germany to Finland

Since our first customer was incorporated in Brønnøysund on 23 January 2023, Intermediary AS has helped a steady stream of foreign companies open the door to the Norwegian market. The pattern is consistent: founders want a Norwegian organisation number, a Norwegian VAT registration, a Norwegian bank account and a clean compliance trail — without flying to Norway or hiring a local lawyer up front.

Incorporation cases Foreign companies now registered in Norway

Each entity below is formally registered in the Brønnøysund Register Centre with its own Norwegian organisation number and D-numbers for foreign owners and signatories — all delivered remotely by Intermediary AS together with our statsautorisert accountant and law partners.

SMV Eksport · SMV Pro · Virksomhedsprogrammet Norwegian market clarification — before incorporation

Not every export journey starts with a Norwegian entity on day one. For Danish SMEs, the right first step is often a structured market clarification or growth plan through Erhvervshusene under the publicly funded Virksomhedsprogrammet — delivered through two complementary tracks: SMV Eksport (international expansion, e.g. into Norway) and SMV Pro (strategy, organisation and growth at home, often a prerequisite for going abroad). Intermediary AS is an approved external advisor on both tracks and is awarded assignments through open tender via the regional Erhvervshuse. Below are two such customer cases: not incorporations, but Norway-readiness analyses with public co-funding from virksomhedsprogrammet.dk.

If your company is considering Norway as the next market — or wants to strengthen its growth foundation before going abroad — both routes can be combined with our incorporation services so the transition from analysis to operating Norwegian entity is seamless. Contact your local Erhvervshus and ask about Intermediary AS as your approved advisor, or reach us directly at contact@intermediary.no.

The delivery What we typically deliver per case

• Choice of legal form — NUF (Norwegian-registered foreign branch — our core product) or AS (Aksjeselskap). NOK 30,000 share capital applies to AS only.
• Company incorporation in Norway — from initial scoping to a fully registered entity in the Brønnøysund Register Centre with a Norwegian organisation number.
• D-number and identity verification for foreign owners and board members — the cross-border digital bridge that lets us co-sign on the customer's behalf via our statsautorisert partners' Norwegian BankID.
• Banking and payment setup tailored to a foreign owner — a real Norwegian business account, not a workaround.
• VAT and tax registration with Skatteetaten (the Norwegian Tax Administration).
• Operational handover — employer obligations, AML/KYC trail, accounting partner, legal partner.
• Public funding routes where relevant — Norwegian market clarification through SMV Eksport, and strategy/growth-readiness through SMV Pro, both under Virksomhedsprogrammet for Danish SMEs.

Roadmap Soon: the full EU / EEA region

Our customer base today is concentrated in Denmark, Germany and Finland — but the underlying digital infrastructure behind registercompany.no is built for the full EU / EEA. Innovation Norway already promotes Intermediary AS to 14 European countries through the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN): Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Germany, France, Belgium, Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Ireland and the United Kingdom. As eID coverage in the eIDAS network expands, the same end-to-end flow we use for Danish, German and Finnish founders becomes available across the rest of the region.
