The 60-second version
Norwegian bank wind-down needs DNB / Nordea / Sparebank closure form, skatteetaten tax certificate, and NOK conversion to EUR or direct NRE wire with FEMA trail.
Skattemelding exit year still covers Norwegian interest
Norway taxes worldwide income for residents — bank interest in departure year appears on skattemelding even after mid-year move.
DNB / Nordea require non-resident status update before closure — BankID may deactivate on address change.
Retain årsoppgave interest certificate for Form 67 and Schedule FA on NOK balance until wired out.
