Telecommunication in Norway

The development of telecommunications in Norway is roughly equivalent to the average of the European Union. Under the country code +47, there were a total of 6.28 million connections in 2019. Among them were 5.72 million million mobile phones, which corresponds to an average of 1.1 per person. In the EU, this figure is 1.2 mobile phones per person.

In the expansion of broadband Internet connections Norway is very well in the race. Around 98% of all residents have access to the Internet. Approximately 42% have their own fast Internet connection, which is at least faster than the previous ISDN (more than 2048 kbit/s).

With about 3.59 million webhosts, Norway is roughly in the the world's average.
