How trafikkforsikringsavgift in Norway is calculated

Norway abolished the old annual road tax and replaced it with the traffic-insurance fee (trafikkforsikringsavgift), a per-day charge collected via your insurance policy.

From 1 March 2026 the daily rate is 6.52 NOK for petrol and filtered diesel (about 2,380 a year), 8.10 for diesel without a factory particle filter (about 2,957) and 9.16 for electric cars (about 3,343) - so EVs now pay the most, not the least. Light electric vans under 1,785 kg are exempt. Estimate, not tax advice.

Worked example

C1 petrol or filtered diesel
Drivstoff (0 = bensin/diesel med filter, 1 = diesel uten filter, 2 = elbil)0
Dagsats 6.52
Årlig avgift 2379.8

Every row is computed by the engine from the inputs above. Rows marked ✓ are additionally pinned by a published self-test vector.
