Disability Rights Protection

The Icelandic Human Rights Institute has now taken over the role of rights protection for people with disabilities.

You can contact them regarding the rights protection of people with disabilities by calling 554-8100 (open from 9 AM to 4 PM on weekdays, with the option to leave a message outside these hours) or by sending an email to postur@rettindagaesla.is or rettindagaesla@mannrettindi.is.

Effective January 1, 2025, individuals with disabilities must contact the District Commissioners when appointing a personal spokesperson or revoking a power of attorney.
