Legal forms

Legal form	Name	Main abbreviation	description	Category
NO_0130 (CDQ)	Etat (nb)	Etat (nb)	This Norwegian category identifies the state as a legal entity, meaning central government and the bodies acting within its legal personality. Ministries and directorates contract and employ staff on behalf of the state, financed from the national budget. Public procurement rules govern their purchasing. Businesses deal with the state as a major customer and as a regulator.	Estate
NO_0200 (CDQ)	Annen juridisk person (no)	ANNA (no)	This Norwegian category covers other legal persons that do not fall within the defined organisational forms. It captures entities created under specific legislation or with unusual features that nevertheless need an organisation number. Their governance, capacity and liability follow from the instrument that created them. Users should consult that source before contracting.
NO_0350 (CDQ)	Andre bo (no)	BO (no)	This Norwegian category covers other estates, meaning pools of assets under administration that are not bankruptcy estates, such as deceased estates and estates in liquidation. They are registered so that they can hold assets, meet obligations and be identified in public systems. An administrator or the heirs act on their behalf. They exist only until the estate is settled.
NO_0500 (CDQ)	Den norske kirke (no)	KIRK (no)	This Norwegian category covers the Church of Norway and its parishes and bodies. Since its separation from the state the church is an independent legal person with its own governance while retaining a special constitutional position.

NO_0950 (CDQ)	Staten (no)	STAT (no)	This Norwegian category identifies the state itself, the legal person on whose behalf central government bodies act.

Their spending is authorised through the national budget and their procurement follows public rules. Businesses deal with the state as a major counterparty.
NO_1100 (CDQ)	Annet foretak iflg. særskilt lov (no)	SÆR (no)	This Norwegian category covers other enterprises established under a specific act of parliament, bodies whose form and mandate derive from their own legislation rather than from general company law. Public institutions, funds and special undertakings fall into this group. Their powers, governance and liability follow from that statute. Counterparties should consult the founding legislation.
NO_1300 (CDQ)	Utenlandsk enhet (no)	UTLA (no)	This Norwegian category covers foreign entities registered in the country, meaning organisations established abroad that need an organisation number for tax, employment or contractual purposes.
