What Buskerud actually requires

Roughly 271,000 people live in Buskerud, one of Norway's 15 counties. Norway went early and went hard, and it did it nationally. Universal design of websites has been the law since 2014, it reaches private business rather than stopping at the public sector, and the uutilsynet regulator can impose coercive daily fines until a site is fixed.

The county administration answers to the same rule as everybody else. There is no separate regional regime to learn, which is the good news, and no regional exemption either.

So here is what we do about it. We work your Buskerud site against all 55 WCAG 2.2 A and AA rules by hand, then a professional blind screen-reader user runs your real journeys while we record where they stop. WCAG 2.2 covers everything EN 301 549 asks for and more, so one audit answers the national rule and anything your county adds on top. Every finding arrives with its screenshot and the fix that closes it.

What we test, and how, in Buskerud

Start with the honest part. The audit is the same in Buskerud as it is anywhere, because WCAG does not change at a border. What changes is which law is watching and what it costs to fail, and the section above settles that.

The work itself runs in three passes. A machine finds the failures a machine can prove. A human works every one of the 55 A and AA rules by hand. Then a professional blind screen-reader user opens your real journeys and tries to finish them, the way your customers would. Every finding arrives with its screenshot and the fix that closes it, drawn from our free library of 432 guides.

None of the reference sits behind a form, either. Every number below counts pages you can go and read right now, free, whether you ever buy an audit or not.

A and AA rules we check: 55

The honest limit

And an audit is evidence, not a legal opinion. We tell you what fails, who it stops, and what closes it. Whether that satisfies a regulator or a court in Buskerud is a question for your lawyer, and we would rather say so than pretend otherwise.

What owners in Buskerud want to know first

Is accessibility testing in Buskerud different from anywhere else?

No. WCAG is the same standard everywhere, so the testing is identical wherever you are. What changes is which law is watching and what failing it costs, and that is what the law section on this page settles.

Who sets the rules for a website in Buskerud?

Norway (Universal Design) is the one that reach Buskerud first, and each has its own page here covering what it asks for, who it lands on, and how it gets enforced. Sell into more than one market and more than one of them can reach you at the same time.

Does Buskerud expect a published accessibility statement?

At least one of the laws that reaches Buskerud names an accessibility statement, so plan on publishing one. Our free generator writes it from what the audit found, so the page says what actually works today rather than what you hope works.

How much is an audit, and when does the report land?

A Rapid Audit is $499 for 10 pages, with the report in 5 business days. A Standard Audit is $1,499 for 25 pages in 10 business days. Once your team has fixed things, the re-audit is half price within 3 months.

Is a real screen-reader user involved, or just software?

Yes, on every audit. A professional blind screen-reader user opens your real journeys and tries to finish them, and we write down where they stop. That is the pass no scanner can run.
