Tax deductible donations

You can easily make changes to your donor agreement and personal information by visiting NMS MinSide.

Donations made with the links above are automatically tax deductible when you providing your national identity number (fødselsnummer).

Because NMS is a tax recognised NGO, donations sent to their account will be tax deductible up to an amount of NOK 50.000 per year (for 2021). This means your tax payment will be reduced by 22% over that amount on your next tax return. The Norwegian Tax Authority has additional info about gifts to voluntary organisations.

Aren’t churches in Norway supported by the government?

As we are not part of the Norwegian State Church (Den Norske Kirke) we do not receive financial support for the government, and are dependent of gifts in order to cover the costs.

OiC gives 10% of its offerings to support NMS Thailand – a partnership made possible by NMS.

Most Europeans know Thailand as the Land of Smiles. But also it is a country where just a tiny minority belong to a Christian church. The need for discipleship training is massive – and there are also big challenges that requires social action. Through NMS, OiC is contributing to theological training both of pastors and lay-people.

We also support Home of Grace, a place where unmarried mothers and their children can receive support and help + Home of Worship where children from deprived backgrounds can attend kindergarten.

You can learn more about the project on NMS’s webpage.
