Collecting enforcement fines
If decisions on access arrangements, parental responsibility, and custody are not respected, we may collect an enforcement fine on your behalf.
The money will go to the State
The courts may assess an enforcement fine if decisions on access and contact arrangements, parental responsibility, and custody are not respected. The enforcement fine will be given to force an action. The Norwegian National Collection Agency (SI) will collect the fine, and the money will go to the State.
How we carry out the collection
The courts may assess an enforcement fine to ensure that the rights of access are exercised. The parent who prevents a right of access from being exercised may be charged with an enforcement fine every time a right of access is being prevented.
The courts may also assess an enforcement fine to ensure that the parties follow the decisions on parental responsibility and on the child's place of residence (custody). In such cases, the enforcement fine will accrue per day or per week.
To issue an enforcement fine, the courts must have made a decision on the parental responsibility, custody or rights of access. If the parents have entered into a written agreement for parental responsibility, custody and rights of access, the County Governor may decide that the agreement be carried out (enforced).
SI cannot issue an enforcement fine.
If you would like SI to collect an enforcement fine on your behalf, you must report it to us.
You cannot report a claim for an enforcement fine for more than eight consecutive weeks.
You must print the form, fill it in and send it to us by post.

Important information
If this is the first time you're reporting a claim, you must attach the decision from the courts in which the enforcement fine was assessed. If the enforcement fine is connected to rights of access, you must also send us proof of the access arrangement.
The money will be collected by SI, and it will go to the State, not to you personally.
