Trustee Agreement

This contract is between NorwayDomain (the trustee) and you, the client. NorwayDomain is a Norwegian-registered entity operating fully within the legal framework established by Norid (Norids Internett AS), the official authority responsible for administering the .no top-level domain. As a Norwegian entity in good legal standing, NorwayDomain holds the right to act as a trustee and to register .no domains on behalf of foreign clients under Norid’s trustee provisions. Norid’s rules are absolute — they govern all .no domain registrations without exception, and nothing in this agreement overrides them.

The service constitutes a user-rights arrangement, not a transfer of legal title. Norid does not permit foreign individuals or companies to hold .no domains directly — the trustee model is the only legitimate route available. By placing an order you confirm that you have read and understood these terms.

Although NorwayDomain appears as the registered holder of record, your rights are protected by this written agreement. You are entitled to:

To protect the integrity of the trustee arrangement and comply with Norid rules, the following are not permitted without prior written consent from NorwayDomain:

Your domain is registered annually. NorwayDomain will send a renewal reminder up to 60 days before your registration month, containing the renewal amount, due date and payment link.

To cancel, you must notify us in writing at least 30 days before your registration month. Cancellations received after this deadline may result in a further annual charge being raised, as the domain will already have been renewed with Norid on your behalf.

All registration and renewal fees are non-refundable once a domain has been registered or renewed. This is because the costs are immediately passed through to Norid and cannot be recovered from the registry.

Non-payment after the invoice due date will be treated as a lapse of the agreement. NorwayDomain reserves the right to cancel or transfer the domain without further notice in such cases.

If you wish to transfer the domain to another .no registrar, the process is as follows:

Step 1 — You must first obtain a valid Norwegian organisation number or Norid-approved personal ID. NorwayDomain will then arrange a formal ownership transfer to that ID at a standard transfer fee.

Step 2 — Once the transfer of holder is complete, you may move the domain to any other Norid-accredited registrar.

After the domain leaves the NorwayDomain service, all associated DNS zones, nameserver configurations and account files will be deleted from our systems. It is the client’s responsibility to back up any DNS configuration before initiating a transfer.

NorwayDomain will provide support and information to registered clients as part of the service. However, NorwayDomain accepts no financial or legal liability for:

It is the client’s responsibility to keep contact information accurate and up to date at all times. NorwayDomain cannot guarantee delivery of renewal notices or support communications if the email address or other contact details on file are incorrect.

All client information is stored and processed in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Norwegian privacy law. Your data is used solely for administering your domain service — we do not share, sell or pass your information to unrelated third parties.

WHOIS privacy is enabled by default for all domains managed under the NorwayDomain trustee service. Our organisational details appear in the public Norid registry rather than your personal information.

You may request deletion or correction of your data at any time by contacting us at contact@norwaydomain.no.

This agreement is governed by Norwegian law and the rules of Norid (the Norwegian domain registry authority), as amended from time to time. Any disputes arising from this agreement shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the Norwegian courts.

NorwayDomain reserves the right to update these terms when required by changes in law, Norid policy or operational necessity. Clients will be informed of material changes by email. Continued use of the service following notification constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
