Membership of the Norwegian Banks' Guarantee Fund is mandatory for all savings banks and commercial banks with headquarters in Norway. The King may also decree that in addition to banks, other credit institutions are required to be members of the Guarantee Fund.

Credit institutions headquartered in other EEA states but receiving deposits from the general public through branches in Norway may become members of the deposit guarantee scheme if the deposit guarantee scheme in the branch's home country is not considered to provide the branch’s depositors with protection equal to that afforded under the Act. Membership requires the approval of Finanstilsynet (The Financial Supervisory Authority of Norway).
