Whilst most emergency passports are issued on the same, or the following, day, we cannot guarantee that an emergency passport will be issued in time for your planned trip.
Important to know:
- An emergency passport is only valid for one return journey
- Your ordinary passport will be invalidated when you apply for an emergency passport. If you recover the passport, you must deliver it to either the embassy or the police in Norway. The passport will no longer be valid for travel
- Norwegian Emergency passports are not machine readable. Many countries do not accept such documents for entry – it is your responsibility to find out if a non-machine-readable passport is valid for entry to your planned destination
- After completing your travel, the emergency passport must be handed in to the police in Norway or an embassy.
