I do not have a valid travel document, but I cannot obtain a passport from my home country unless I travel to an embassy abroad. How do I proceed?


You can apply for an ‘immigrant's passport for a single journey’ to obtain a passport from your home country's embassy.

You can apply for an ‘immigrant's passport for a single journey’ if:

  • you do not have a valid travel document or a passport from your home country, and
  • your home country does not have an embassy in Norway, and
  • it is the first time you are applying for an ‘immigrant's passport for a single journey’

If you have been granted an immigrant's passport before but did not use it, you must submit a written explanation with your application. If you have to travel to your home country to obtain a passport or any necessary supporting documentation, you must attach documentation to confirm it (e.g. confirmation from the embassy).
