You run a hotel with both lodging (12 %) and restaurant (25 %).
Each invoice line is tagged with the VAT rate. The VAT return aggregates separately per rate and fills lines 3, 4 and 5 of RF-0002 automatically.
Norway has four VAT rates: 25 % standard (most goods/services), 15 % groceries, 12 % passenger transport/lodging, 11.11 % raw fish withdrawals. 4b2b issues invoices with the right rate per line, aggregates periods, and submits the finished VAT return to Altinn — with automatic SAF-T v1.30 attachment when the Tax Administration requests it.

You export to Sweden — without VAT — and buy from Germany under reverse charge.
EEA invoicing is handled with 0 % VAT on outbound (line 9) and reverse charge on inbound (lines 16/17). VIES validation is built in.
The Tax Administration asks for a SAF-T file for audit — is it ready?
SAF-T v1.30 is generated directly from the ledger with one click. Includes general ledger, chart of accounts, VAT codes, vendor/customer lookups. Delivered via Altinn or direct XML.
How do you report period VAT if the business is new and uses an annual term?
The platform identifies the period rhythm automatically based on VAT-liable turnover: under NOK 1 M → annual, above → bi-monthly. Reminders sent 7 days before each deadline.
The entire 4b2b ecosystem is built for the Norwegian market — from EHF invoicing to SAF-T export and A-melding. You don't need to integrate against Altinn yourself.
