It is possible to draw up marriage agreements (prenuptial agreements) in Norway to regulate the ownership of a couple’s assets/property. If this is not done, assets/property are automatically regulated by Norwegian marriage legislation. (The form is in Norwegian only)

Before you can get married, the Norwegian Tax Administration must check whether you meet the conditions for entering into marriage. The process may take some time, so make sure you allow plenty of time before the wedding.

If you’re getting married abroad, the marriage can be entered into in accordance with either foreign law or Norwegian law. Before you can get married, whether in accordance with Norwegian or foreign law, the Tax Administration must check that you/the one of you who is/has been resident in Norway, fulfils the conditions for entering into marriage.
