Your own Norwegian phone number is the ideal solution. You have the choice of different types of numbers, and with the extensive package of services and solutions from Belfabriek, you do not have to make large investments.

0800 numbers

Just like the Netherlands, Norway also has service numbers that are free for callers, the so-called “toll free” or “free phone” numbers. In Norway, these numbers start with 800, followed by a five-digit number.

These free service numbers are a perfect way to remove the calling threshold for your new Norwegian customers. By offering your Norwegian callers a number that is familiar to them and free to call, you immediately win their trust. And you will see that reflected in your call statistics.

Paid service numbers / national numbers

In addition, Norway also has paid service numbers, comparable to our 0900 numbers. These are national phone numbers.

National service numbers, comparable to 085 numbers in the Netherlands, start in Norway with 852 or 854.

Local numbers

Besides these national service numbers, Belfabriek can also supply local numbers in Norway, for example in Oslo.
