The Norwegian government has decided that the 700 MHz band (694-790 MHz) in the future will be dedicated to mobile broadband communications services. Today the 700 MHz band is used for digital terrestrial television (DTT) and wireless microphones (in "white spaces") in Norway. The DTT-licence expires 3rd of June 2021. The Norwegian Communications Authority (Nkom) is currently preparing the allocation of the band.

The Norwegian Communications Authority (Nkom) will award approximately 2 x 20 MHz in the 900 MHz band. The frequencies are currently assigned to TeliaSonera Norge AS and Telenor ASA. The licenses expire 31 December 2017. According to plan the auction will be conducted summer 2016.

The Norwegian Communications Authority (Nkom) awarded 2 x15 MHz in the 1800 MHz band by multiround ascending auction. The auction started 25 November and lasted till 3 December 2015. The frequencies are the unsold lots from the multiband auction in December 2013. Three bidders participated in the auction and TeliaSonera won 2 x 5 MHz and Telenor won 2x 10 MHz. Total revenue amounts to NOK 877 983 276. The actual placement of the frequencies was decided with a first-price sealed-bid auction.

The auction was conducted 2 to 10 December 2013. TeliaSonera, Telenor and Telco Data won spectrum in the auction.
