All financial institutions, including Western Union, are required to collect additional identity information to know their customers better. When we understand who is sending money to whom, we can help protect your money from being used for illegal activities.

 If you want to send more than 8,000 NOK, we will need to verify your identity. After that is finished, your send limit will increase to 35,000 NOK per transfer.

Note: You must be at least 18 years old to send or receive money with Western Union.

We might ask you for additional details to verify your identity when sending money online.
