Right to deletion of personal data in VIS
If you believe that the personal data we have registered about you is incorrect or has been processed unlawfully, you have the right to have your data deleted.
However, there are several exceptions to the right to deletion. There are several reasons why your data is necessary to process.
The right to have personal data deleted does not apply if the processing is necessary for
- compliance with a legal obligation,
- the performance of a task in the public interest,
- the exercise of official authority,
- the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, or
- archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes
You may send us a letter requesting that we delete the data about you.
Send the letter to:
Norwegian Directorate of Immigration
P.O. Box 2098 Vika
NO-0125 Oslo
Norway
Requesting deletion is free of charge.
