Identification numbers

In Norway, we use identification numbers to identify persons who have a connection to our country.

Many public and private enterprises require that you have a Norwegian identification number to get access to their services. For example, you need a Norwegian identification number to open a bank account.

There are two kinds of identification numbers: national identity numbers and D numbers.
