This has approximately nothing to do with the EU. Norway is not in the EU and not in the EU Customs Union.

The EEA links the EU member states and three EFTA states (Iceland, Liechtenstein, and *Norway*) into an internal market governed by the same basic rules.
- magicalhippo 5y agoWe have our own customs rules though. The proper EU members are all bound by the EU customs TARIC[1] while Norway has its own[2]. The EEA limits what we can do with our own customs tariff though.
