It is not illegal at all.

However, Norwegian customs are very meticulous and take a while to process parcels.  Being a parcel from the USA, there will be a customs charged levied.

The customs charge is usually the VAT on the item + an administration charge.

In the UK, couriers charge this admin charge to collect the VAT and it varies widely.

Norway is in Europe, but not in the European free trade restrictions - its a rare European country that needs a Custom Declaration CN22 form for it.  

Therefore there could be potential customs charges from parcels within Europe going to Norway.
