Built so Norwegians can shop America without the headache.

The problem

If you live in Norway, you've felt it. The US store either doesn't ship to Norway, or they do but charge $60 for a t-shirt that cost $25. The package shows up days late with a customs invoice you didn't expect. You give up and pay double at a Norwegian retailer for the same item.

What we do

We give you a real US street address in Doral, Florida — five miles from Miami International Airport and the Port of Miami. American stores see you as a US customer. They ship to us domestically (often free).

When your packages arrive at our warehouse, we photograph and log each one. When you're ready, we consolidate them into a single shipment, file the Norwegian customs declaration, pre-pay the 25% VAT, and hand it to a carrier for the trip across the Atlantic.

You get one transparent invoice and one delivery to your door — no surprise customs fees at the post office.

Why Florida

• Zero sales tax on the inbound leg — many states tax out-of-state purchases, Florida doesn't.
• Miami International Airport — the largest US freight hub for transatlantic and Latin American cargo, with direct routes to Oslo via SAS Cargo and codeshares.
• Port of Miami — weekly sea consolidations to Northern European ports.
• Time zone — receiving in Eastern Time means we close the day after most Norwegian customers wake up.

Who we're for

• The hobbyist who wants ski gear from REI, mountain-bike parts from Jenson, or fly-fishing tackle from a small US shop that doesn't ship abroad.
• The cabin owner stocking up for the season — tools, furniture, kitchenware, dog gear — at US prices.
• The shopper who watches Black Friday and Cyber Monday wishing they had a US address.
• The expat with an Amazon Prime habit they're not ready to give up.
• The small business sourcing US-only components or merchandise.

How we're different from the post office

PostNord and similar services move parcels — they don't help you shop. NorShip is built around the assumption that the US store doesn't know you exist as a Norwegian, and that you'd rather not deal with customs paperwork. We're the buyer-side service the post office can't be.

How we make money

We charge for the international leg, the consolidation labor, and customs work. That's it. We don't take a cut of what you buy, we don't sell your purchase data, and our rates are published on the pricing page.
