Chamber of trade or trade association

Chamber of trade
or trade association

It sounds very Danish - and this is the suggestion in Lyng Svensson's Samfundslitteraturs Økonomisk Ordbog

I don't know if it really is the same thing in Norwegian, but it's there if you can use it.
Note from asker:
I can't use "chamber of commerce" because that corresponds to a handelskammer. But "trade association" might be a viable solution here. Thanks, Christine.
