MSDS-NON DG

Goods under IATA Special Provisions A67 require a MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet).

It is not required for all, however shipments can be held by local authority in United Arab Emirates after screening due to lack of MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) or NON DG (Dangerous Goods) declaration letter from the shipper resulting to misconnections and impacting end-to-end service.

It would be advisable for all shipments originating, transiting and terminating for UAE to have MSDS or NON DG declaration from shipper enclosed in the shipment and copies to be uploaded in IDIS.

No Information found on this topic for the selected country or territory.

Clearance Comments

Norway does not accept transit shipments to be sent to other countries or territories.

Commercial Shipments

Shipments valued greater than 350.00 NOK being sent to hotels, conferences, and exhibitions (dutiable) can only be cleared after contact with the importer. It is highly recommended to state the consignees telephone number or email address for contact purposes on the commercial invoice. A copy of the passport will be needed in cases where the consignee is not a Norwegian citizen. In addition, duty and V.A.T. need to be paid prior to delivery (C.O.D.).

If the invoice value is greater than 80,000.00 NOK, and the importer does not have a Customs Deferment account, then duty and V.A.T. will need to be paid prior to delivery (C.O.D.), but only if the importer is not VAT registered in Norway. If the importer is VAT registered, the importer has to pay the VAT directly to the Norwegian Tax Agency. This means that the importer only has to pay the duty prior to delivery (C.O.D.). Delays might occur.

Customs Clearance Process

Customs Valuation

The customs value has to be the value of the imported goods. The customs value shall be based on the transaction value which is the actual price of the goods plus adjustment for certain elements. Freight charges are the most common element for adjustment.

For cases in which there is no transaction value the methods of valuation based on the framework defined by the World Trade Organization (WTO). For further information please see check the WTO website: www.wto.org/english/tratop_e/cusval_e/cusval_info_e.htm

Undervalued items may cause customs fines for the importer.

Door-to-Door Delivery

Service is provided to every address in Norway, except for Jan Mayen Island (postal code 8099)and Svalbard (postal codes 9170-9179).

Many outlying areas are served by the Norwegian Postal Service, where one delivery attempt is made. If the consignee is not available to accept the package, they need to make arrangements to collect from the post office.

Summary: Additional information on Norwegian Post Office Shipments:

In Norway, many deliveries are made by the local postal service rather than UPS. When the Norwegian postal service makes a delivery on behalf of UPS, the shipment receives a new tracking number, which is loaded in the last scan in eTT and can be tracked at the postal service web page www.posten.no.

Note: If the tracking number does not work, you can try the following solutions when tracking on www.posten.no : If the number in the eTT scan detail screen starts 70 add 370 to the beginning-Search by UPS tracking number-Remove the 1 from the UPS tracking number.

As soon as UPS hands over packages to the Norwegian postal service, we rely on their local distribution and transportation network, which is complex due to many geographical challenges within the country or territory.

For any customer requests, such as intercepting and returning a package back to the shipper or when alternate delivery arrangements are required, UPS must work with the Norwegian postal service in order to fulfill and respond to these inquiries.

As a result, it takes longer to fulfill these requests than UPS customers are used to and in some instances may take up to 3 weeks for the request to be actioned due to the fact that UPS must wait until the Norwegian postal service returns these shipments back to UPS.

When handling customer inquiries on shipments that have been handed over to the Norwegian postal service and could not be delivered, make sure to:

Apologize and empathize as needed-Set the customers expectations by explaining that their shipment is currently with the Norwegian postal service and therefore out of UPS control-Inform the customer we will work diligently to fix the situation and do what is required to resolve their issue, however for undeliverable shipments it may take up to 3 weeks until UPS will be able to return them back to the shipper.

Duty and Taxes

Please note that not only the value(s) of the commodity/commodities have to be considered when calculating duty and tax, but also the freight charge and other fees.

Post Office Boxes

UPS cannot deliver to a P.O. Box address. All packages require a consignee's contact name and complete street address including apartment, suite or unit number if applicable. The consignee's telephone number should be provided if known.

Private shipments

If the invoice value is greater than 10,000.00 NOK and the importer does not have a Customs Deferment account, then duty and V.A.T. will need to be paid prior to delivery (C.O.D.).

Service is provided to and from certain cities. However, Jan Mayen and Svalbard (including Spitzbergen) are considered Out-of-Territory and are NOT serviced by UPS.

Please note, many areas of Norway are served by Postal Service and Agents as remote areas. Time in transit for these areas can be up to 11 days. Please check the Time-In-Transit generator for specifics.

For more information on deliveries made by the Norwegian Post Office, please see Door to Door delivery under Additional Clearance Information.
