Close Relationship between Norway and the European Union

This enables the free flow of goods, services, capital, and people between Norway and EEA countries. The agreement ensures fair competition through shared rules on bidding, state aid, and government procurement, with harmonized standards on packaging, labeling, and product requirements.
