Annual Motor Vehicle Tax must also be paid for vehicles whose number plates were removed after 1 January. If the vehicle has been delivered for scrapping befor 20 March, you do not have to pay.
The person registered (on 1 January) in the central register of motor vehicles as the owner of the vehicle must pay Annual Motor Vehicle Tax to Norwegian Customs and Excise.
Unpaid Annual Motor Vehicle Tax will be collected by the Norwegian National Collection Agency. The tax will usually be deducted from your pay.
