Expulsion and re-entry ban to Iceland

In certain cases a foreign national may be expelled from Iceland if requirements to stay in Iceland are not met, according to the Foreign Nationals Act. Expulsion generally entails a re-entry ban to Iceland and the Schengen area.

Different rules apply to expulsion of EEA/EFTA citizens and citizens of other countries. Authorizations for expulsion are more stringent depending on the extent of the rights of a person to stay in Iceland.
