Only voluntary associations, foundations, and non-commercial limited liability companies that only distribute funds to nonprofit activities are eligible for registration. Registration is free. While registration is optional, the number of registered organizations is steadily increasing as registration is a requirement for receiving the grass root share from gaming (Norsk Tipping), value added tax (VAT) compensation, and other benefits.en-USCountry ReportPhilanthropyNorwayDataset
