The Financial Supervisory Authority of Norway has opened testing for large pension funds’ European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) reporting through a new solution.

As of the reference date of 30 June 2026, the EIOPA reporting for large pension funds, alongside Solvency II reporting for insurance companies, will be submitted through a new reporting solution, e-Reg.

The 25 largest pension funds in Norway can start testing now with this reference date, following EIOPA taxonomy version v. 2.9.0 with the reporting format XBRL.

The authority said the purpose of the test environment was to test submissions on the new taxonomy before full reporting opens.

It added that the testing would provide validation results and functions in the same way as the production environment, but data submitted through the testing phase would not be used by the authority.

In an update, the authority highlighted that the e-Reg reporting submission must follow a specified structure, and provided detailed guidance on how files should be named.

The production environment in e-Reg for pension funds’ EIOPA reporting opens on 30 June 2026, while the EIOPA reporting deadline for pension funds is 18 August 2026.
