It affects everyone who plans to apply for a permit with the police this fall or winter.

“You lose money from your account”

At the latest last week, the police sent out information via their social media channels. Then there was an increased number of reports from people who used several well-known buying and selling sites. The police said, among other things, that it could end “with you getting rid of money from your account”.

This post was part of the collaboration the police have started with the Norwegian Agency for Community Safety and Emergency Preparedness (MSB) on alerting and preventing fraud in the digital environment.

This applies if you are going to arrange something, for example an autumn flea market, a demonstration, a Christmas market or a music event, as the police write in a post on Facebook.

According to the police, many people apply for permits just before and during the autumn. In a post, the authority writes “Don’t wait to apply for permission”.

You can apply for a permit for that from the police

On the police’s website, you can apply for the following:

  • Arrange arrangements
  • Permission to use security guards
  • Use public space
  • Cultivation tools
  • E-services for weapons permits
  • Filming in a public place
  • Fireworks and other pyrotechnic goods
  • Trading in used goods
  • Hotels and guesthouses
  • Alarm installation
  • Shoot within a detailed planned area

  • An application for a permit may also have to go through the relevant municipality or other relevant authority, which is one of the reasons why the police emphasize that you submit your application as soon as possible.
