Customs Clearance in Kongsvinger – Norway–Sweden Border Region

Kongsvinger is an important logistics area in eastern Norway, close to the Swedish border.

The region is frequently used for commercial transport between Norway and Sweden, as well as for goods arriving from Poland, Germany, Denmark and other European countries.

TollAgent AS provides remote customs clearance for companies importing and exporting goods through the Kongsvinger region.

Customs Office in Kongsvinger

The Norwegian Customs office is located at:

Kongsvinger Customs Office
Parkvegen 12
2212 Kongsvinger
Norway

Current opening hours:

Monday–Friday: 08:00–15:00

The customs office should not be confused with a 24-hour border crossing.

The correct border procedure depends on the route used by the vehicle and the customs procedure assigned to the goods.

Transport between Sweden and Kongsvinger

Kongsvinger is located close to several road connections between Sweden and Norway.

One important route is the E16 via the Magnor/Charlottenberg area, frequently used for goods travelling between Sweden and eastern Norway.

From Kongsvinger, goods can continue towards:

  • Oslo,
  • Innlandet,
  • Gardermoen,
  • central Norway,
  • or further west.

For international transport, it is important to choose the correct border crossing and prepare the customs procedure before the vehicle reaches Norway.

Digitoll and transport through the Kongsvinger region

For goods entering Norway by road, the required transport and consignment information must be submitted digitally under Digitoll.

The exact procedure at the border depends on which crossing the driver uses.

Unlike Svinesund and Ørje, not every border crossing uses automatic ANPR cameras.

At crossings without automatic cameras or tablets, the driver may need to report to the customs service point and provide the vehicle registration number to receive a routing signal.

Therefore, the driver should know the planned border crossing before starting the international part of the transport.

Remote customs clearance

TollAgent AS can prepare customs documentation electronically, so the importer does not need our customs agent to be physically present in Kongsvinger.

We assist with:

  • Norwegian import declarations,
  • export declarations,
  • Digitoll,
  • NCTS,
  • T1 and T2 transit,
  • commodity codes,
  • and customs documentation.

For regular shipments, we can also establish a standard customs workflow using previously verified information about the goods.

What documents do we need?

For standard commercial customs clearance, send us:

  • commercial invoice,
  • packing list,
  • CMR or other transport document,
  • description of the goods,
  • quantity and weight,
  • commodity codes if available,
  • country of origin,
  • importer and exporter details,
  • and vehicle registration number.

Additional documentation may be required for regulated goods.

Example: Poland → Kongsvinger

A Norwegian company in Kongsvinger imports construction materials from Poland.

The truck travels:

Poland → Germany → Denmark → Sweden → Norway → Kongsvinger

Before the vehicle reaches the Norwegian border, the customer sends the invoice, packing list, CMR and vehicle information to TollAgent AS.

We prepare the required customs documentation and Digitoll information.

The driver can then follow the procedure applicable to the selected border crossing.

Preparing the customs clearance in advance reduces the risk of delays caused by missing documents or incorrect customs information.

Regular imports to Kongsvinger

Companies importing the same types of goods regularly can make the process even easier.

For recurring shipments, we can establish:

  • verified commodity codes,
  • standard product descriptions,
  • origin information,
  • document requirements,
  • and a regular customs clearance workflow.

This is particularly useful for companies receiving several deliveries every month.
