Reiten has represented Norway at all youth international levels from under-15 to under-23. As a 13-year-old, she was already selected for the under-15 national team to play a match in Kristiansund. In April 2010, Reiten represented the under-17 team at the 2010 UEFA Under-17 Championship in Switzerland, where Norway were eliminated in the second qualifying round, finishing second in their group behind Germany.
She made her under-19 debut on 30 May 2011 in the opening game of the 2011 UEFA Under-19 Championship against Germany, which her team lost 3–1. Reiten made four appearances at the tournament and scored one goal, against Spain in the group stage. Norway eventually reached the final where they lost 8–1 to Germany and finished the tournament as silver medalists.

After a successful qualifying campaign for the 2013 UEFA Under-19 Championship, in which Reiten scored three goals in six matches and was the team's joint top scorer, she led Norway at the main tournament in Wales as team captain. The team failed to qualify for the knockout stages after finishing third in Group B, behind Germany and Finland, with three points from three matches, winning the only game of the tournament against Sweden 5–0. Reiten played in all three matches.

Three days later, she was included in the starting lineup for the first time, in a 1–1 draw with England, where she played the full 90 minutes. On 13 February, Reiten played her first competitive match against Greece in a 2015 World Cup qualifiers, where she again played the full 90 minutes, before representing Norway at the 2014 Algarve Cup a month later.
After two appearances in the last two World Cup qualifying matches in September 2014, through which Norway qualified for the 2015 World Cup, Reiten had to wait more than two years for her next appearance, and in the meantime she played for the under-23 national team. She returned to the Norwegian squad in March 2017 for the 2017 Algarve Cup and made three appearances at the tournament. Reiten also managed to score her first senior goal in the process, against tournament hosts Portugal, scoring her team's second goal in a 2–0 win only three minutes after being substituted in.
Reiten represented Norway at UEFA Euro 2017, where she came on as a substitute in the opening game against the Netherlands. She also played in the last group match against Denmark, however, she was unable to prevent her team from being eliminated without a single point or goal for the first time in a major tournament. After an unsuccessful European Championship campaign, Norway played qualifiers for the 2019 World Cup. Reiten played in all eight matches and scored four goals, including a brace against Northern Ireland in the opening game, as Norway qualified for the World Cup finals with a first-place finish and seven wins from eight games.
Reiten had her first tournament success in 2019 by winning the Algarve Cup. On 2 May, she was included in the squad for the 2019 World Cup, her first World Cup. At the World Cup, she played in all five of Norway's matches. In the opening game against Nigeria, she scored the first goal of the tournament for Norway and was named the best player on the pitch for her goal and assist. A 3–0 defeat to England in the quarter-finals saw her and her team eliminated, also missing out on the 2020 Summer Olympics.
In the Euro 2022 qualifiers, Reiten featured in all six of Norway's matches and scored four goals, including the 1–0 winner against Wales. In the 2023 World Cup qualifiers that followed, she also played in all ten games and netted two goals.
In June 2022, Reiten was called-up to the Norwegian national team for the 2022 European Championship finals. She appeared in three group matches, starting with a 4–1 win against Euro newcomers Northern Ireland, in which she scored Norway's last goal in a 4–1 win. They then suffered the heaviest defeat in their international history against England, 8–0. Third in their group, they failed to qualify for the knockout stage at the second consecutive European Championship after losing 1–0 to Austria in the last game.
On 19 June 2023, she was included in the 23-player Norwegian squad for the 2023 World Cup. She appeared in all four of Norway's matches at the final tournament, scoring two goals.
