iHerb Shipping to Norway: Taxes, Customs, and Delivery
Planning an iHerb order to Norway? This guide explains VAT, customs duties, VOEC treatment, shipping arrangements, carrier contacts, and important import restrictions.
This guide summarizes the iHerb shipping information available for Norway. The information was checked in 2026. Customs, tax, carrier, and delivery terms may change, so verify current conditions with iHerb and the relevant Norwegian authorities before placing an order.
Customs and taxes in Norway
Since January 1, 2020, Norway has removed the 350 NOK value-added tax (VAT) and duty exemption for food items. Orders containing consumable products may therefore be subject to VAT, customs duties, and other customs-clearance fees. The customer is responsible for applicable taxes, duties, and clearance fees unless iHerb collects them at checkout under the relevant arrangement.
Consumable products include foods, sweets, soft drinks, supplements, and other products that can be consumed by people. VAT on most iHerb products ranges from 15% to 25%. Customs duties and special taxes depend on the product.
For example, supplements are subject to 15% VAT and customs duties of 31.71 NOK per kilogram. Additional special taxes may apply to products such as chocolate and soft drinks.
VOEC and payment of duties
iHerb is registered for Norway’s VAT on E-Commerce scheme, known as VOEC. For products valued at 3,000 NOK or less, excluding food and excise-duty products, iHerb collects, reports, and remits VOEC directly to the Norwegian tax authorities.
For other products, iHerb collects duties and taxes at checkout on a Delivered Duties Paid basis. According to the shipping reference, no additional payment is needed when the order is delivered.
Shipping and delivery to Norway
iHerb orders to Norway are shipped from iHerb’s US warehouses by air freight. The estimated delivery window shown by iHerb reflects most standard deliveries, but it is not a guarantee. Air-freight delays, customs holds, and other unforeseen circumstances outside iHerb’s control can extend transit time.

Product restrictions and import checks
Norwegian regulations can change frequently. iHerb attempts to block prohibited products, but customers should still carry out their own due diligence to confirm that each product may be imported into Norway and whether a license or permit is required.
Before ordering, check the applicable rules with the Norwegian customs authorities and relevant official regulations, including rules concerning medicines and food or dietary supplements. iHerb’s Terms of Use may also apply.

iHerb promocodes may reduce the order price, subject to the current promotion terms, product eligibility, and other conditions shown at checkout. See the current iHerb promocodes for Norway before completing your order.

Before you place an order
- Confirm that the products are permitted for import into Norway.
- Check whether food, supplements, excise-duty products, or other items are treated differently for VAT or customs purposes.
- Review the order value and currency conversion risk if it is close to a relevant threshold.
- Review the taxes and duties shown at checkout where applicable.
- Keep in mind that delivery estimates may change during transit.
