NRK Tegnspråk is a Norwegian television channel broadcasting signed versions of programs broadcast by NRK1, NRK2, NRK3, and NRK Super.

Starting in 2022-23, the program schedule was increased from circa 4 shows per day, to around 8 to 12 shows per day that were no longer tied to being simulcasts of the other NRK channels (except for the big newscasts, which remain simulcasts). All programmes have their regular audio tracks and hard subtitles alongside the signing.

A very limited selection of TV2 shows have been aired on NRK Tegnspråk too, which includes TV2 hjelper deg and Tina - Jakten på en drapsmann.

During the channel's downtime, it shows a TV guide with program descriptions, and plays an audio feed of NRK1.
