NederlandsThe Mews Compliance Suite helps Norwegian properties meet their accommodation tax and e-invoicing obligations. In Norway, it includes Tax Automation, Tax Intelligence, and e-invoicing in the EHF format through the Peppol network. You purchase the Compliance Suite once from the Mews Marketplace and then choose which features and integrations to use.
In this article, you can learn about:
Tax Intelligence
Tax Intelligence is a dashboard and report in Mews Operations under the main menu > Finance > Tax Intelligence. It shows the accommodation taxes you collected and the exemptions you applied, and gathers the data you need for your declaration in a document you can export.
- Dashboard: person nights, both taxable and exempt, a breakdown of tax collected by rate, and a month-by-month trend.
- Monthly report: tax collected, occupancy, including room nights, person nights, and arrivals, and accommodation revenue split into taxable and exempt.
- Exemption log: exempt stays, guests, and person nights grouped by reason, with a line for each guest.
- Flexible and exportable: filter by week, month, quarter, or a custom period, and export to PDF or Excel.
Note: Tax Intelligence exports the data but does not submit your declaration. The report only includes stays where all bills are closed. Each stay is counted in the month of check-out.
You can watch a short overview in the video Tax Intelligence in Mews and learn more in our help article Introducing Tax Automation and Tax Intelligence.
Tax Automation
Accommodation taxes depend on where your property is, and the rules can change. Tax Automation generates the right tax configuration for your property and keeps it up to date.
- Set up in minutes: In Mews Operations, go to the main menu > Settings > Property > Finance > Tax Configuration, open the Tax automation tab, and enter your address, latitude and longitude, and property details. The star rating and category, such as 4 stars Superior, matter most, because they can change which taxes apply.
- Configuration generated for you: Mews works with a specialist tax data provider to find the taxes that apply to your property.
- Always up to date: when a tax authority publishes a change, your rates update automatically. You do not need to check anything manually.

E-invoicing through Peppol and EHF
Norway requires invoices to be sent as structured e-invoices in the EHF format over the Peppol network. EHF is the Norwegian name for the standard Peppol invoice format. The Peppol fiscal registry integration has been available in Mews since 6 October 2026 and is part of the Compliance Suite, alongside Tax Automation and Tax Intelligence.
Note: If you already use Peppol e-invoicing in Mews, nothing changes for you. Your integration and its configuration stay exactly as they are, and you keep sending e-invoices as you do today.
- Sent automatically: when you close a bill or issue an invoice to an eligible company or public body, Mews sends it through Peppol.
- Recipient checked first: Mews checks that the recipient is registered in Norway's Peppol directory, ELMA, before sending.
- Organisation number validated: Mews checks your organisasjonsnummer at setup, so typos are caught before any invoice is sent.
- Status on screen: check whether each invoice was delivered in Mews Operations under the main menu > Finance > Fiscal record report.
Key dates:
| Date | What happens |
|---|---|
| April 2019 | Invoices to public bodies must be e-invoices. |
| 6 October 2026 | The Peppol fiscal registry integration is available in Mews. |
| 1 January 2027 | Invoices between Norwegian businesses must be e-invoices. |
What you need to do:
- If you already use Peppol in Mews: nothing. Your setup carries over as it is.
- If you do not use it yet: set up the Peppol integration in the Marketplace with your company details and your 9-digit organisasjonsnummer, state whether your company is registered in the Foretaksregisteret, and upload a proof of ownership document. Approval can take up to 72 hours. Make sure each business customer's organisation number is on their company profile.

Disabling Tax Automation
You can disable Tax Automation at any time. Disabling it does not stop your Compliance Suite subscription, and the other integrations in your Compliance Suite stay unchanged.
- Your configuration is deleted. Your accommodation tax rates are no longer updated automatically, so you need to check and update them yourself in Mews Operations under the main menu > Settings > Property > Finance > Tax Configuration. Tax Intelligence stays available in Finance as long as the Compliance Suite is active.
- To enable it again, open the same Tax automation tab and set it up again as you did the first time.
To stop paying, delete the Compliance Suite from the Marketplace. To learn how the Compliance Suite works and what to check before you make a change, see Managing the Mews Compliance Suite.
