Vitnemålet og karakterutskriften lastes opp sammen.

In Norwegian, definiteness is usually shown by adding an ending to the noun, rather than putting a separate word in front.

So:

• et vitnemål = a diploma / certificate
• vitnemålet = the diploma / certificate

and

• en karakterutskrift = a transcript
• karakterutskriften = the transcript

Because the sentence is talking about specific documents, both nouns are in the definite form.

The endings are different because the nouns belong to different grammatical genders.

• et vitnemål → vitnemålet
• en karakterutskrift → karakterutskriften

So -et is the definite ending for a neuter noun like vitnemål, while -en is the definite ending used here for karakterutskrift.

Because Norwegian normally writes compound nouns as a single word.

Here:

• karakter = grade
• utskrift = printout / transcript

Together, karakterutskrift means something like grade transcript.

This is very normal in Norwegian. English often uses two words where Norwegian uses one compound word.

It is a passive form.

The base verb is å laste opp, meaning to upload.

• Active: Man laster opp dokumentene = someone uploads the documents
• Passive: Dokumentene lastes opp = the documents are uploaded

So lastes opp means is/are uploaded.

This kind of -s passive is especially common in formal written Norwegian, instructions, websites, and official language.

Because å laste opp is a verb plus a particle, similar to an English phrasal verb like upload or put in.

In Norwegian, the particle often stays separate:

• å laste opp
• jeg laster opp
• dokumentene lastes opp

So opp is part of the verb meaning, but it is still written as a separate word.

Because Norwegian verbs do not change according to singular or plural subjects in the present tense.

So the same verb form is used with one thing or many things:

• Vitnemålet lastes opp
• Vitnemålet og karakterutskriften lastes opp

Unlike English, Norwegian does not have a difference like is uploaded versus are uploaded in the verb form itself here.

This is very common in formal Norwegian instructions.

Compare:

• Last opp vitnemålet og karakterutskriften sammen.
  = direct command: Upload the diploma and transcript together.

• Vitnemålet og karakterutskriften lastes opp sammen.
  = more impersonal, official-sounding instruction

Websites, forms, and administrative texts often prefer the passive because it sounds neutral and formal.

Here sammen means together.

It tells you that the two documents should be uploaded as part of the same action, not separately.

Depending on the context, that could mean:

• in the same step
• in the same submission
• possibly as one combined file, if the system requires that

The exact practical meaning depends on the instructions around the sentence, but the basic idea is together, not separately.

That is a very natural position for it in Norwegian.

The basic structure here is:

• subject: Vitnemålet og karakterutskriften
• verb: lastes opp
• adverb: sammen

Putting sammen at the end sounds neutral and normal. Norwegian often places this kind of adverb after the verb phrase in simple statements.

Yes. Both are possible.

• Vitnemålet og karakterutskriften lastes opp sammen
• Vitnemålet og karakterutskriften blir lastet opp sammen

They are very close in meaning. The -s passive in lastes opp is often shorter and a bit more formal or administrative. That is why it is common in instructions and official text.
