A race licence is required for participation in all events organised by clubs affiliated to the Norwegian Athletics Federation. For events organised outside athletics stadiums (for example road races, cross-country, mountain and trail), it is possible to purchase an Annual Race Licence or Day Licence: Off-Track.
Prices Annual Licence:
- Core Licence NOK 550
- Core Plus Licence NOK 1250
Day Licence: Off-Track
Event organisers may set relevant entry fees for their events. The entry fees will affect the price of day licences. If the event is free of charge, it is not compulsory for the event organiser to collect day licence fees*. How the entry fees affect the cost of day licences can be found below:
Day licence prices are calculated based on the total of the entry fees:
<50 Optional for Organiser/NOK 20*
51- 100 NOK 20
101-250 NOK 30
251-400 NOK 40
401< NOK 50
If the entry fee for the event is between 1-50 NOK, it is up to the event organiser whether they wish to offer day licences for participation through the NFIF licence scheme but please note that without race licences, participants and officials will not be insured. Public liability insurance for the event is, however, maintained.
Licence check: All events with an entry fee over 50 NOK (whether they are timed events or not) are subject to the NFIF race licence scheme. This means that event organisers must collect licence fees from their participants. If a participant claims to hold an annual race licence, the event organiser must perform a licence check. Many event management systems will perform automatic licence checks. Select from the menu below to read more about different event management systems and which ones support this task.
