Norge.no is a web guide for citizens to online public services in Norway. The web portal has information about how citizens can communicate digitally with public authorities, log into public services and choose a digital mailbox.
The portal has information in Norwegian (bokmål and nynorsk) and in English.
The web portal is operated by Agency for Public Management and eGovernment (Difi) which is subordinate to the Ministry of Local Government and Modernisation.
The web portal www.norge.no was launched 24 January 2000 as part of a government initiative in cooperation with the Norwegian Association of Local and Regional Authorities (KS). The portal was designed to give citizens and public sector employees a comprehensive view of public administration in Norway. The portal’s editing team was located in Leikanger, Sogn og Fjordane.
On 1 January 2002, Opplysningstjenesten i staten, a help desk service, was merged with the portal service www.norge.no to form Norge.no - the official gateway to public services and information. On 3 June 2004, and English version of the portal, www.norway.no, was launched.
Initially, Norway.no was a project run by the Office of the County Governor in Sogn og Fjordane. Then, on 1 January 2005, Norway.no was reorganised as a public agency, Norge.no, subordinate to the Norwegian Ministry of Government Administration, Reform and Church Affairs. In addition to running the portal and help desk, Norge.no the agency was responsible for developing quality assessment criteria for evaluating public web sites. It was also responsible for developing and running the online one-stop shop for public digital services, Minside (MyPage).
On 1 January 2008, Norway.no was merged with two other public agencies, Statskonsult and the Norwegian eProcurement Secretariat, to form the Agency for Public Management and eGovernment (Difi).
On 31 May 2012, the one-stop shop for public digital services, Minside, was closed down[2]. Most of the content from Minside was made available via the Norge.no portal.
