NOK to USD over the last 30 days

Over the 23 ECB working days from 2 Sept 2026 to 2 Oct 2026, 1 NOK ranged from 0.1036 USD (2 Oct 2026) to 0.1089 USD (9 Sept 2026), averaging 0.1063. Today's 0.1036 is below that average by 2.54%.

For 1,000 NOK, that range is the difference between 103.63 and 108.92 USD: 5.29 USD, or 5.10% of the low. The biggest one-day move was -0.92% on 10 Sept 2026.

Example: a bank or card that sets its rate 3% worse than mid-market would pay 100.52 USD for 1,000 NOK today instead of 103.63, keeping 3.11 USD. This rate moved more than 3% within the month, so timing mattered as much as the margin.

Who converts NOK to USD, and why

Norwegian kroner to dollars is used by Norwegians shopping or travelling in the US, by Americans working in Norway's oil, gas and shipping industries, and by investors in Norwegian shares.

• Converting Norwegian pay or offshore rotation wages into dollars
• Checking a US purchase or trip budget from Norway
• Repatriating savings after a posting in Stavanger or Oslo

Tip: The krone tends to move with oil prices. If you are converting a large sum on a fixed date, split it into two or three parts over a few weeks to smooth out an oil-driven swing.

About the two currencies

The Norwegian Krone (NOK) is issued by Norges Bank and used in Norway, including Svalbard. Oil and gas exports shape the krone, and Norway's oil revenue is invested abroad through the Government Pension Fund Global, one of the world's largest sovereign funds. Vipps is the everyday payment app.

The United States Dollar (USD) is issued by the Federal Reserve and used in the United States and its territories, and also Ecuador, El Salvador, Panama (alongside the balboa), Timor-Leste, the Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Palau and several Caribbean territories. It is the world's main reserve and invoicing currency: oil, most commodities and a large share of world trade are priced in dollars, which is why so many cross rates are worked out through it.

Why does the Norwegian krone move with oil prices?
