Correct answer: Å begrense skadene alkoholbruk kan føre til
Under § 1-1 of the Alcohol Act, the aim is to limit as far as possible the social and individual harm that alcohol use can cause. As part of this, the Act aims to limit consumption. The purpose is therefore not to raise revenue or to make alcohol easily available.

Correct answer: Drikk med mer enn 2,5 volumprosent alkohol
Under § 1-3 first paragraph of the Alcohol Act, "alcoholic drink" is the collective term for drinks with more than 2.5 % alcohol by volume. The 0.7 limit concerns low-alcohol drinks, which are only covered by the age limits in § 1-5. The 4.7 limit separates group 1 from group 2.

Correct answer: Ved salg drikkes det utenfor salgsstedet, ved skjenking på stedet
Under § 1-4 of the Alcohol Act, sale is handing over to a consumer against payment for drinking away from the point of sale, while serving is sale for drinking on the premises. Both are against payment, and the difference has nothing to do with the alcohol groups.

Kunnskapsprøven i alkoholloven for the serving licence, the retail licence and inspectors, and the etablererprøve for the general manager of a restaurant, café, bar or takeaway.
No – both exams are only in Norwegian. At kunnskapsprøven a bilingual dictionary is allowed; at the etablererprøve only the law collection (Norges lover). That is why the app keeps questions in Norwegian and adds English help.
No. The app is for preparing.
No. It helps you practise, but nobody can guarantee the result. For the current exam rules, contact your municipality.
