Australia–Norway relations

Australia–Norway relations are foreign relations between Australia and Norway.

Both countries established diplomatic relations in 1905, after Norway’s independence. Australia has a consulate in Oslo. Norway has an embassy in Canberra.

There are around 30,000 Norwegians living in Australia and 1,125 Australians living in Norway.

Both countries have Territorial claims in Antarctica and share a mutual border at 44°38′E.

The two governments briefly clashed in 2001, due to the Tampa affair.
