The objective of the statistics is to produce annual statistics covering the transport activity of the industry useful to the public sector and the taxi industry itself.

The statistics is based on data already collected by the Norwegian Tax Administration beginning in 2014. The Norwegian Tax Administration annually collects information from about 6000 enterprises with one or more taxi licenses. This information is used to controle that the enterprises follow the tax regulations. Statistics Norway in 2015 ended its own data collection and resorted to reusing tax information for statistical purposes.

The major user of this statistics is the industry itself, public authorities and business organisations.

No external users have access to the statistics and analyses before they are published and accessible simultaneously for all users on ssb.no at 08 am. Prior to this, a minimum of three months' advance notice is given inthe Statistics Release Calendar.
