Import notification to Mattilsynet
Consignments are notified to the food authority before arrival. We supply the certificate and consignment detail the notification requires.
Separate customs treatment
Norway is outside the EU customs union, so a separate customs declaration and duty assessment applies even though food rules mirror the EEA.
Phytosanitary certificate
Fresh plant consignments carry a phytosanitary certificate from the Plant Quarantine Wing.
Norwegian labelling
Norwegian-language labelling with origin, lot and storage conditions on retail packs.
Why this lane works for green chilli
Norway buyers on this line are typically ethnic grocery importers, seafood traders, halal food distributors. On the air route the consignment is 17-23 hours from Dhaka, which for a product with a shelf life of 14 to 21 days leaves ample selling time on arrival. Supply runs year round, so a standing weekly or fortnightly booking is straightforward to hold.
Full grading, packing and variety detail is on the Green chilli product page; the entry rules and document set for every line into this country are on the Norway market page.
