Mandatory AutoPASS Tag for Heavy Vehicles in Norway
All vehicles with a permitted total weight over 3500 kg used for commercial purposes on Norwegian roads must have an active AutoPASS agreement and a toll tag mounted on the windshield.
All vehicles with a permitted total weight over 3500 kg used for commercial purposes on Norwegian roads must have an active AutoPASS agreement and a toll tag mounted on the windshield.
The requirement applies to both Norwegian and foreign vehicles. Drivers who drive without a valid toll tag risk getting a fine.
Each year, 5,000 foreign heavy vehicles arrive in Norway for commercial transport without an electronic toll tag. 90 percent of this traffic enters the country via the national borders at Svinesund or Ørje.
Foreign drivers will save time by having arranged an AutoPASS agreement and the corresponding toll tag in advance. Nevertheless, most foreign trucks cross the border into Norway without an AutoPASS tag installed in the vehicle.
Because the toll tag is mandatory, dedicated toll tag machines have been established at the national border crossings at Svinesund and Ørje.

Checklist:
At the other border crossings, there will be a manual registration system where a form is filled out to create a tag agreement, and the tag can then be picked up at the respective customs station.
Tags are also distributed at the largest ferry terminals in the country.
SkyttelPASS will take over responsibility for tag issuance at border crossings from Fremtind Service at the turn of the year.
