Directorate of Immigration: International protection

I am not in Iceland, can I send you an application for international protection?

No that is not possible. You need to be in Iceland to apply for international protection because applications must be submitted in person.

Applications for protection that are sent from abroad are not accepted for processing.

Can't find what you are looking for?
