What the ads say

NATIONAL (Police, prison and customs ads) Indicator: keyword counts Source: NAV – Arbeidsplassen.no public feed (live) · Data: 06/11/2026

Indicator ⇅Ads ⇅Share ⇅

These are simple text searches in the ad descriptions (Norwegian and English keywords). They are a rough guide, not a legal reading of each ad: always read the ad itself.

Can you live on it?

Does this salary work here? (estimate)

Type the gross monthly salary you were offered. We apply the 2026 tax rules and subtract an average rent from SSB.

Method: national insurance 7.6%, standard deduction 46% (max NOK 95,700), personal allowance NOK 114,540, ordinary income tax 22% (assumed unchanged; verify), bracket tax 1.7/4.0/13.7/16.8/17.8%. Ignores pension, union fees, deductions, municipal differences and holiday-pay timing. Rent = SSB 2025 survey average, not a current asking price. Food, energy, transport and insurance must still come out of what is left. Not advice.
