Norwegians complete tax forms by SMS

In a world first, The Norwegian Inland Revenue is giving Norwegians the chance to complete their tax returns by text message. It applies to taxpayers who have no changes to make to the form they receive in the post. Last year, 1.5 million Norwegian taxpayers returned the form unchanged. This year, they can simply send a text message with a code word, their identity number and a pin code instead, according to an article in Ananova.
