Your annual tax assessment is a document that shows how much tax you owe or how much you will receive as a tax refund. It is sent to you by Skatteetaten (the Norwegian Tax Administration) and is sent out during March and April with 31st of April as the due date for filing.

The tax assessment includes information on your income, deductions, and tax liability for the previous year. If you are owed a refund, the assessment will also show the amount you will receive and when you can expect to receive it. If you owe taxes, the assessment will show the amount you owe and the deadline for payment.

It’s important to review your tax assessment carefully to make sure all the information is correct. If you notice any errors or discrepancies, you should contact Skatteetaten as soon as possible to have them corrected.

The due date for your annual tax assessment varies depending on when you filed your tax return. If you filed your tax return electronically, you can expect to receive your tax assessment by the end of June. If you filed your tax return on paper, you can expect to receive your assessment by the end of October.

If you owe taxes, the due date for payment is typically August 10th. However, if you receive your tax assessment after August 10th, you will have 2-3 weeks to make the payment depending on when you receive the assessment.

In summary, your annual tax assessment is an important document that shows your tax liability or refund for the previous year. It’s important to review the assessment carefully and to contact Skatteetaten if you notice any errors or discrepancies. The due dates for your assessment and any taxes owed vary depending on when you filed your tax return, so it’s important to keep track of these deadlines.
