How do I start a club or association?

1. Create an agreement and write the articles of association

How to establish an association or club?
An association or club is established by creating an agreement between the members.
This normally happens by calling the members to a founding meeting, where the membership formally decides to establish the association or club.
In the articles of association, it is common to include who attended the founding meeting, the date and location. Also write that you have formally decided to establish an association with a specific purpose that the members wish to work towards, as well as the election of a board.
Approve the association's statutes at the founding meeting. The articles of association must be signed.
On Brønnøysund Register Centre's pages you can find templates for articles of association and statutes.

2. Register your club or association with the Brønnøysund Register Centre

To register a club or association, you must submit Coordinated register notification via Altinn (the Norwegian digital portal for dialogue with public agencies)
Before you begin, make sure you have:
- Norwegian national identity numbers for all individuals you need to register with a role, such as contact person or chair.
- All necessary documents available electronically, such as articles of association, founding document or minutes from the annual general meeting.
Tip: Grant selected board roles signing authority to act on behalf of the club or association (e.g. the chair and one board member jointly).
Once submitted, the registry notification must be signed by all parties involved. Signing is done electronically via Altinn (the Norwegian digital portal for dialogue with public agencies).
If the association has an accountant or auditor, they must also sign the form electronically.
Done! Brønnøysund Register Centre will now register you so you receive an organisation number. This normally takes from a few days to a couple of weeks.
Brønnøysund Register Centre will contact you if anything is missing.
You can check the status in your inbox at Altinn (the Norwegian digital portal for dialogue with public agencies).

3. Done! You can now apply for a business account
