Average Salary in Norway
The Norwegian average salary is 56,360 kr per month before tax, according to the latest data from
Statistics Norway (SSB),
the official source for labor and wage statistics in the country.
This translates to an annual gross income of 676,320 kr, for which our calculator

Minimum Wage in Norway
Norway does not have a universal minimum wage set by the state.
However, there are sector-specific minimum wages established through collective agreements and regulations.
These agreements ensure that wages do not fall below a certain level, typically no less than 196.00 kr per hour.
Assuming a standard 37.5-hour work week, this translates to a minimum monthly gross salary of approximately
31,850 kr or 25,688 kr after tax.
How Is Salary Calculated and Paid in Norway?
In Norway, salaries are usually paid on a monthly basis, with deductions made for taxes and social security contributions.
Employees receive a payslip that details their gross salary, the deductions made, and the net amount received.
Employers are responsible for withholding the necessary taxes and contributions from employees' salaries.
These deductions are then paid to the relevant government authorities.
