In short: What is SAF-T?
SAF-T (Standard Audit File for Tax) is an accounting format developed by the Norwegian Tax Administration. It makes it easier to export and share accounting data in a standardized way – for example for audit, control, or import into Accountflow.
💡 All entities subject to bookkeeping requirements must be able to generate SAF-T files upon request from the Tax Administration.
Step by step: Use SAF-T import
1. Create a new company
Go to Company under Settings & Admin in the menu on the left.
Click Add company and select Add other systems….
2. Fill in information
Complete all required fields and select SAF-T import as the accounting system.
Finish by clicking Save.
3. Go to the SAF-T portal
Once the company is created, go to saft.accountflow.com to upload the company’s SAF-T file.
4. Upload the SAF-T file
Drag and drop the file into the upload field, or click Browse files to select it manually.
If you want to upload several files, you can compress them into a ZIP file for faster upload.
💡 The accounting data is automatically linked to the correct company based on the organization number in the SAF-T file.
