I’ve done telecoms work in Norway before and not been liable for any Norwegian Tax. As for the medical/survival that’ll be down to what the client accepts as a suitable standard. What’s a VOB by the way?
VOP, also called VOO: Vessel of OPportunity / Vessel Of Opportunity
The Capt and officers have worked Norway before and have paid tax, they seem to think this will still be the case. I can’t find anything on the Net and all advice so far is conflicting.
you are only liable for Norwegian tax when you are working subsea and not when you are in transit. However if the transit is mobilisation to, or demobilisation from work in Norwegian waters, tax liability will arise.
