The List of diplomats of Norway to China began when diplomatic relations were established in 1851. The establishment of diplomatic relations took place during the union between Sweden and Norway, and a Norwegian-Swedish consulate general was established in Guangzhou. A vice consulate was set up in Shanghai in 1853. When the vice consulate in Shanghai became the consulate general in 1863, and the consulate general in Guangzhou was upgraded to a vice consulate.

When the union of Norway and Sweden was ended in 1905, Norway sent the consul-general, Thorvald Hansen, to Shanghai. And there was a vice consulate, Jørgen Jacob Eitzen, in Hong Kong.

The Norwegian legation in Beijing was established in 1919. It was merged with the consulate general in Shanghai in 1930 (after the Nationalist Government moved to Nanjing in 1928) and remained until 1954. And there was an embassy in Chongqing from 1943 to 1945 during the war time.
