Støtt/support salt peanuts*
IMPORTANT: Promo copies to sp*
Are you sending us promo-CDs or vinyl for consideration for review? Are you sending them from outside of Norway?
Due to changes in the system for imports, you have to follow the instructions below carefully, before you send any promo copies to us.
If you do not abide with these instructions, you risk that the handlers of imports levy VAT — value added tax, or MVA, moms — on the post. If this happens, the post will be returned unopened at your expense. If return is not possible, we will have to charge you for the incurred costs and expenses.
As of January 1, 2024 VAT is levied on all imports with any value larger than zero. If you state any non-zero value, this will risk incurring an expense on us for VAT levied on the total value you have stated, and added handling costs of ca. €5,-.
We get hundreds of albums for review, so this is a cost we cannot accept.

You should use the CN22 Customs Declaration, and fill it out as shown here. Use CD or vinyl in accordance with the content of the package. Make sure you cross (see blue cross) for «Commercial Sample», and declare the value and total value as zero, 0 in whatever currency is relevant.
The stated value is the commercial value, and is for customs purposes only. It is no statement of value for insurance or other purposes.
Some postal companies do not accept that you state a zero value. In this case, state Total value = 1, in your chosen currency.
If you are required by the postal organization to use the CN23 Customs Declaration, see below, state the same information in the boxes marked with blue frames, fields 1, 5 and 6. Make sure to cross for «Commercial Sample».
Note that the fields about commercial items on CN22 and CN23, do not apply for promo articles; these are not for sale, hence, they are non-commercial items.
