Wait, what? You are in Norway right now? Then what's wrong with having your account set to Norway?

Then you'll need to contact support as it says on that page:

We have automatically detected your current country as ************. If this is not correct, or you reside in a different country and are just visiting, you will need to contact Steam Support to verify your country of residence.

Using VPNs to lie about your region is against the Steam Subscriber Agreement.

Hello,

We are currently experiencing a high load of tickets so this message was sent to you because you selected Purchase Failures as your category. Please restart Steam and try your purchase again. If you are still experiencing any issues, please provide a screenshot of the error and we will get back to you as soon as we can.

How do I change my wallet currency?
In most cases, your wallet currency will reflect your store country from the Account Details page. If you would like to update the currency of your Steam Wallet, you may either:
  • Complete a purchase using your new store country without using or applying any wallet funds from your old store country. After completing the purchase successfully, your wallet will update to the new country using daily exchange rates.

  • Contact Steam Support and request a Wallet conversion. You will need to attach to your ticket proof of residence in your new country for verification purposes. Examples of acceptable proof are your drivers license, ID card or Passport.

Is the first option not doable?

If you raise a support ticket with steam they can force your store address to always be one location (regardless of your physical location). I used it when I lived in Hong Kong to have my store address set to Australia. It is also extensively used by soldiers and other deployed personnel.
