Norwegian Translation for a Premium Market
Norwegian is spoken by approximately 5 million people and is the official language of Norway, one of the world's wealthiest nations with a GDP per capita exceeding $70,000 and consistently low unemployment. Norwegian consumers and businesses maintain high standards for written communication and are sensitive to quality.
Norwegian bokmal and Nynorsk
The country also has two written standards, Bokmal and Nynorsk, which are both in official use.
Our Norwegian translation team
We work with native Norwegian translators who cover both Bokmal and Nynorsk. We serve clients in oil and gas, maritime, technology, finance, legal, real estate, and healthcare sectors.
Norwegian technical and regulatory translation is particularly demanding given the precision required for offshore energy, maritime compliance, and pharmaceutical content. Interpretation services are available in Oslo, Bergen, Trondheim, and Stavanger. Diplomas and civil records for a US state agency, a Norwegian municipality or the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration can be ordered as certified document translations, and the receiving body decides on acceptance.
Regional Variants Covered

- Bokmål (literary Norwegian, used by ~85%)
- Nynorsk (New Norwegian, used by ~15%)

Norwegian Translation: Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Bokmal and Nynorsk?
Bokmal and Nynorsk are the two official written standards of Norwegian. Bokmal is used by the majority of Norwegians and closely resembles Danish; Nynorsk is based on rural Norwegian dialects and used in specific regions and official contexts. For most business translation, Bokmal is the appropriate choice.
We clarify which standard is required before work begins.
What sectors do we cover for Norwegian translation?
We cover IT and software, finance and banking, legal and regulatory, oil and gas, real estate, medical and pharmaceutical, engineering, business presentations, and marketing content. Norway's energy sector in particular generates significant translation volume in technical, legal, and regulatory formats.
Do we provide Norwegian translation for compliance documents?
Yes. We handle contracts, terms and conditions, privacy policies, product labeling, technical certifications, and regulatory submissions for the Norwegian market. Our legal translators are familiar with Norwegian regulatory requirements and produce output that reads naturally in a legal register.
