Request to impose daily fines

If the custodial parent withholds visitation from a parent with visitation rights, the district commissioner may impose a daily fine on the custodial parent. The fine may be as high as ISK 30,000 for each day visitation is withheld from the time district commissioner has issued their decision until visitation is restored. To request a decision on imposing a daily fine, use the form below. Note that this form is available only in Icelandic.
