Strengthen your company's competitiveness with Made in Norway

Made in Norway is designed for businesses across Norway. Companies that meet the criteria and register to use the label gain the right to display it.

By using the Made in Norway label, you highlight your product's Norwegian origin and benefit from Norway's strong reputation, both at home and internationally. This can give your business a clear competitive advantage and help you stand out in the market.

1. Check whether you meet the criteria
   Go to the criteria page and make sure your company qualifies to use the origin label. There are both general criteria and specific criteria for different product categories.
   
2. Submit the registration form
   In the registration form, enter information about your company and the products or solutions you want to register to use the origin label. You must confirm and be able to document that your company meets the criteria.
   
3. Start using the mark
   We manage the rights to use the country-of-origin mark based on the established criteria. Once we approve your product or solution, you will receive access to guidelines and templates for using the mark.

To use the label, your company must meet basic responsible business requirements, and your product or solution must meet specific criteria for its sector.
