Register your new address promptly so that official correspondence, municipal services, tax records, electoral registration, schools and childcare are connected to the correct residence. Many municipal services are available through Vangin; https://www.vangin.fo/en you can also contact your destination municipality directly.

If information in the National Population Register appears to be incorrect, contact your municipality orthe National Population Register https://www.us.fo/landsfolkayvirlit_navnamal/ for guidance. Do not assume that another person’s registration can be changed without official review.

Before signing a rental or purchase agreement, confirm in writing how the property is supplied with water, electricity, heating, wastewater services, internet and telecommunications. Ask which charges are included and which you must pay separately.
