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 an 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.
