The Det Mosaiske Trossamfund (DMT), as known as the Jewish Community of Oslo, is an umbrella organization representing Norwegian Jews.
All Norwegian Jews who are Jewish according to Orthodox halakha are eligible for membership in the community, meaning Jews who are born to a Jewish mother or who undergo an Orthodox conversion to Judaism.
Originally named Det Jødiske Samfund i Christiania (The Jewish Community in Christiania), the name was changed to Det Mosaiske Trossamfund (The Mosaic Community) a year later.

Ervin Kohn, the head of Det Mosaiske Trossamfund, endorsed the effort as a "extremely positive" moment in inter-minority relations in Norway.
