Document.no is a Norwegian right-wing to far-right anti-immigration online newspaper. Academics have identified Document.no as an anti-Muslim website permeated by the Eurabia conspiracy theory, although others have described it as a conservative and more moderate part of the movement. The website received global media attention in connection with the 2011 Norway attacks due to its association with perpetrator Anders Behring Breivik.
The articles published in Document.no are often critical towards Islam and immigration, and supportive of Israel and the United States, as well as Donald Trump and conspiracy theories such as election fraud in the 2020 election. Faktisk.no found Document.no to be part of a far-right echo chamber that simultaneously is one of Norway's most popular online newspapers in social media, and a report on extremism on the Internet published in 2013 by the Ministry of Justice and Public Security described Document.no as an "extremist website." Document.no has been met with mixed reception in media commentary.
Document originally began as a small publishing company. The website was launched by Hans Rustad, a former journalist for the news agency NTB in 2003, and is owned by the limited company with the same name. Rustad was admitted to the Association of Norwegian Editors in 2018, and Document.no was granted financial press support from the Norwegian state in 2023.
