If you are unable to leave Norway before your permit, visa, or visa-free stay expires, you may be expelled or refused entry or stay. You must keep documentation showing that it was not possible for you to find alternative means of returning home. You will need to present this documentation if a refusal of entry or stay or expulsion case is initiated when you leave Norway. You will also need it if you later apply for a visa to enter Norway.

You should not send this documentation to UDI now, and you do not need to contact us. UDI cannot confirm that you are allowed to remain in Norway. If a refusal of entry or stay or expulsion case is initiated, UDI will take into account that you attempted to leave Norway in time — but you must be able to document it.
