About the mission

Welcome the website of Norway's Permanent Delegation to NATO. This site provides information on Norway’s role in NATO and background information on NATO's activities from a Norwegian perspective. You can also find useful information on Norway's foreign and security policy.

The Norwegian Delegation to NATO is an integrated mission with civil servants from both the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Defence. We work closely with the Norwegian Military Mission to NATO to promote Norwegian views in the North Atlantic Council, the Militay Committee and across the spectrum of NATO committees.

We welcome your interest in our work and hope that you find this website useful.
