Solution
Obligations and deadlines, derived
Knowing which forms, obligations, and deadlines apply to a given company is its own problem. This combo resolves the obligations that follow from a company's roles and registrations, and computes each deadline in Oslo time — so your agent works from a current answer instead of a hard-coded guess.
What it does
The combo chains two endpoints into one regulated answer: the obligations that apply, and when they fall due.
- Obligations derived from the company context — entity type, NACE codes and registrations — not a static list.
- Deadlines computed in Europe/Oslo with weekend and Norwegian public-holiday adjustment, never a hard-coded offset.
- Every response carries a _meta envelope with the rulebook version and data source, so you can show what the answer rests on.
- Free, keyless public variants exist for the generic templates per entity type — try them with no signup.
Who it's for
For anyone who has to answer “what must this company do, and when?” — programmatically and verifiably.
- AI agents that plan compliance work and need a deterministic, sourced answer.
- Accounting and business software that wants to surface deadlines in its own UI without maintaining a rules engine.
- Accounting firms (regnskapsbyrå) monitoring obligations across many client companies.
A concrete example
Fetch the generic obligation template for a limited company (AS) — keyless, no signup:
curl https://www.apier.no/api/v1/public/obligations?entity_type=ASThe response lists each obligation with its category, frequency, whether it always or conditionally applies, the legal reference and a link to Lovdata. For the company-specific answer — with Tier-2 evaluation and due dates — use the authenticated /company endpoints. Full walk-through in the recipe.

Frequently asked questions
- Are the public obligations and deadlines endpoints keyless?
Yes — free, keyless public variants return the generic obligation and deadline templates per entity type, with no signup. The company-specific answer, with Tier-2 evaluation and due dates, uses the authenticated /company endpoints.
- Are the deadlines adjusted for weekends and public holidays?
Yes — each deadline is computed in Europe/Oslo with weekend and Norwegian public-holiday adjustment, never a hard-coded offset, so your agent works from a current answer instead of a hard-coded guess.
- Does Apier file these obligations for me?
No. This combo computes what a company must do and when — the obligations that follow from its roles and registrations, and each deadline in Oslo time. It tells you what is due; it does not file the return for you.
- How do I know which rulebook version produced the answer?
Every response carries a _meta envelope stating the rulebook version and data source that produced it, so you can show exactly what the answer rests on.
