I lost my Norwegian travel document while abroad. What do I have to do to travel back to Norway?

---

If you have lost your travel document while travelling, you should contact the nearest Norwegian Foreign Service mission and apply for a laissez-passer for entry to Norway. Please note, you must have a valid residence permit in Norway to be issued a laissez-passer. When you return to Norway, you must hand in the laissez-passer to your local police. To obtain a new travel document, you need to submit an application for renewal with a separate attachment in which you explain the loss of your travel document.

If you have a permanent residence permit which has expired, or if your residence card was lost or stolen, you will also need to apply for an entry visa (D-visa). Visit the Entry visas (D-visas) page for further information.
