Norway spreads your pension across the public scheme and a paid-up certificate minted by every job you left, and the portals need a Norwegian national identity number with BankID or MinID. We identify what is in your name and hand you the route in. $99, full refund if we find nothing material.
If you worked in Norway and moved on, changed employers, or lost the paperwork years ago, you are in the right place. Pensions are rarely gone. Most of the time the scheme simply lost track of you.
What your Pension Identification Report delivers
Nobody sits between you and your pension. You act the moment the evidence lands.
For Norway, the central record is not publicly searchable from your employment history alone. Your Pension Identification Report delivers the honest access-map: what exists, where your record sits, the deadlines and traps that affect your entitlement, the exact route in, and your entitlement position. An official portal (Norsk Pensjon) consolidates your pensions in Norway, but departed residents are often locked out; your Pension Identification Report also surfaces the forgotten occupational / private layers that sit alongside it.
Identification & research only, no financial advice
If you still hold BankID, the national consolidator shows the public scheme and the occupational pots together and you can look yourself up. Without it, the documented path is NAV International and paper applications, and whether the consolidator has a no-BankID fallback is an open question in our dossier rather than a promise we will make.
Identification only. We do not open credential-protected accounts, and we do not transfer, negotiate, or make decisions regarding any pension.

OTP has been mandatory since 2006, so every Norwegian job exit mints a pensjonskapitalbevis, a paid-up capital certificate held by a private provider, dormant and claim-triggered until pension age, potentially one per job, that a departed worker almost certainly does not know exists.
The public alderspensjon is not auto-paid (must be claimed via NAV "Din pensjon"); the pensjonskapitalbevis certificates sit with private providers indefinitely until the person actively claims them.
Personal-record access wall: Norsk Pensjon / NAV "Din pensjon" via BankID or MinID through ID-porten, prerequisite: a Norwegian fødselsnummer
