Zakat in Norway follows the same revelation as Zakat everywhere, written for payers who calculate and pay in NOK (Norwegian krone). Below you will find today's indicative Nisab values in Norwegian krone, the gold and silver Nisab expressed in Norwegian krone, how giving is usually organised in Norway, what Ramadan 2027 will look like, and the calculators that do the arithmetic for you. Norway is one of 195 countries covered by ZakatSuite, in the Europe region, and every figure on this page is given in the currency a payer in Norway actually faces.
The two thresholds a payer in Norway is judged against, at this guide's reference prices, are NOK 71,532 — the value of 87.48 grams of gold at NOK 818 per gram — and NOK 6,421, the value of 612.36 grams of silver at NOK 10 per gram, with the conversion running at 10.7 NOK per US dollar. Treat both figures as indicative: the NOK rate and the metal markets move daily, which is why the calculator reprices the thresholds at the moment of use. So the line that matters most in Norway is the silver one, NOK 6,421: cross it with net wealth held for a hawl, and 2.5% of everything above zero — not just of the excess — is due.
In daily practice, the Zakat of most households leaves through the same short list of routes: bank transfer to registered Zakat charities, local Zakat committees that collect and distribute within the community and mosque collections, especially around Jumu'ah and during Ramadan. Whichever route you choose, Zakat must actually reach people whom Quran 9:60 names as eligible, and become theirs in law and fact (tamlik). A common pattern in Norway: calculate at home first, often against a fixed Ramadan date, then spread the payment over two or three trusted channels. Put the practical questions first: file the confirmation with your PDF report, and check whether administration costs come out of the Zakat itself where an organisation deducts them. In Norway, community life runs in Norwegian, so instructions left with family should be in the language they actually use.
Ramadan 1448 is expected to begin on Monday 8 February 2027 across Norway, pending the sighted crescent and your community's announcement. The closing ten nights begin from Maghrib on 27 February, Laylat al-Qadr being sought on the odd nights (27 February, 1, 3, 5 and 7 March) and the 27th night falling on the evening of Friday 5 March 2027. The final fast should fall on 8 or 9 March 2027, and Eid al-Fitr on 9–10 March 2027. For Oslo, day one runs from 05:51 (Fajr) to 16:49 (Maghrib), with the whole month tabulated in the Ramadan 2027 timetable for Norway — Oslo.
A resident of Norway holding NOK 17,979 held as cash and savings — some 2.8 times the silver Nisab — with nothing owed. It has passed the Nisab and sat for a full lunar year, so the Zakat due is 2.5% × NOK 17,979 = NOK 449. Add any gold, stock or foreign currency in NOK first; the 2.5% then applies to the combined net total.
The short answer for Norway: gold's Nisab is NOK 71,532 (87.48 grams of gold) and the silver threshold is NOK 6,421 for 612.36 grams of silver. They are priced from gold at NOK 818 the gram and NOK 10 for silver for Norway, converted at 10.7 NOK to the dollar. Since prices shift daily, so let the live calculator quote the threshold of your actual due date; silver is the standard most scholars advise for cash.
For Norway, the money of the calculation is NOK, the Norwegian krone. Foreign balances converts into NOK at your due date's rate and added before the Nisab test . The currency changes only the clothing of the numbers: 2.5% of net zakatable wealth above the Nisab, after one full lunar year.
Work in NOK throughout: balances, metals at today's price, business stock, investments and money owed to you. Take off the debts due now, then set the net figure against the Nisab — NOK 6,421 on the silver standard, or NOK 71,532 on the gold standard. If it reaches the Nisab and a lunar year has passed, pays one-fortieth of the net total — NOK 449 on the NOK 17,979 example worked through above.
Fitrana (Zakat al-Fitr) is not a fixed ZakatSuite figure: the duty is one sa' of local staple food (about 2–3 kg of wheat, rice, flour or dates) per person. Scholars in Norway set the rate in NOK each year, with announcements commonly made in Norwegian. The count is per person, including children, and deliver it before the Eid prayer. The Fitrana calculator multiplies Norway's announced rate by your household size so nobody is missed.
Regionally, Norway is grouped with the rest of Europe; with Norwegian recorded as its community languages. Use code NO for the short page — and the short version of this page is at zakatsuite.com/no. The full set of 209 tools runs for Norway in NOK, with PDF reports for the record.
