Norman Finance

Register at norman.finance and complete the business profile setup, including your tax number and business type. Norman is purpose-built for German accounting law (EÜR, Umsatzsteuer), so accurate profile data is needed for tax tools to work correctly.

Install the norman-mcp-server package via pip. This provides the norman-mcp command-line binary for stdio transport.

pip install norman-mcp-server

Norman supports two transport modes: hosted SSE (connect directly to mcp.norman.finance/mcp with OAuth — no local install needed) and local stdio (use your pip-installed binary with email/password credentials).

Add Norman's hosted MCP endpoint to your config. Authentication uses OAuth 2.1 — no credentials are stored in the config file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "norman-finance": {
      "url": "https://mcp.norman.finance/mcp"
    }
  }
}

For stdio transport (e.g., when using Cursor or a custom client), set your Norman credentials as environment variables in the MCP config.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "norman-finance": {
      "command": "norman-mcp",
      "args": ["--transport", "stdio"],
      "env": {
        "NORMAN_EMAIL": "[email protected]",
        "NORMAN_PASSWORD": "your-norman-password"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop or your MCP client after saving the configuration. In hosted mode, complete the OAuth authorization flow when prompted. In stdio mode, authentication happens automatically using the env credentials.
