Notice of discrepancy (RRH-0120)

All organisations and public authorities that are required to report potential errors in the register.

According to the Money Laundering Act, organisations with reporting obligations must check beneficial owners when carrying out customer due diligence for new clients, and when following up existing ones.

Organisations with reporting obligations that must notify the register are:

• banks
• mortgage companies

• securities companies
• companies administering unit trusts
• companies doing insurance mediation without reinsurance mediation
• administrator of alternative investment funds

Public authorities obliged to notify the register:

• The entity for financial intelligence, responsible for receiving information about suspicious circumstances based on the Money Laundering Act section 26
• the Tax authorities
• supervisory authorities for organisations subject to reporting based on the money laundering regulations
• supervisory authorities for foundations
• other authorities with responsibility to investigate and address money laundering, primary offences and terror financing
• other authorities with responsibility for tracing, tying up and seizure of dividends
• security authorities

To gain access, your organisation must have access to one of these API scopes in the data sharing service:

• reelle/offentlige
• reelle/rapporteringspliktig

If your organisation does not have access, you can apply for it here: Data on beneficial owners - The Brønnøysund Register Centre

1. The organisation number of the organisation you are reporting  
2. What is incorrect and what the correct information should be    
3. Information about the beneficial owner:
   
   • date of birth
   • name
   • adress
   • country of residence
   • all citizenships
   • position (ownership, control of voting rights, the right to appoint or remove more than half of the board members, or control in any other way
   • basis (direct, indirect, understanding or agreement)
4. If the beneficial owner is registered through an intermediary organisation, you must state :
   • organisation numbers and names for Norwegian organisations
   • name, address, country and, if available, registration number for foreign organisations

• the general manager of an organisation with access to report a discrepancy

If you do not have access to fill out and submit the form, you will need:

• a delegated access to the service "RRH-uoverensstemmelse"
• a delegated access to the service "lese reelle rettighetshaver" to be able to see receipts, after you have submitted a notice of discrepancy. The role "post/arkiv" is also sufficient.

Read more about how your organisation assigns roles and access rights in Altinn.

Once you have submitted the form, you will receive a receipt showing the information you have reported. The organisation you reported will receive a letter in Altinn with information about:

• who submitted the notice
• what the notice concerns
• a deadline of three weeks to submit the correct information about the beneficial owners.

If the organisation does not update within the deadline, the notice becomes visible to those with access to the register. Public authorities will also be able to see who submitted the notice. The organisation will then receive a second letter in Altinn and be given three more weeks to correct the error.

If the information is still not updated by the new deadline, daily fines (coercive fines) may be imposed. The rules on daily fines are in Chapter 15 of the guidelines.
