Why buy from 1688.com via iWishBag in Norway?

  • Most Indian retailers — Myntra, Nykaa, FirstCry, Flipkart — do not ship to Norway. iWishBag purchases on your behalf and forwards from India.

  • iWishBag handles Norwegian VAT and customs documentation end to end; Norway is outside the EU customs union, so imports follow Norwegian-specific procedures.

  • Quotes shown in NOK with all duties and VAT included.

Norway customs

Norway levies 25% MVA (VAT) plus customs duty on imports above NOK 350. iWishBag pre-calculates VAT and duty into the quote and clears goods through Norwegian customs (Tolletaten).
