Return Budget

  • IOM will book and pay for the plane ticket for the return journey and provide pocket money for the journey. The pocket money is USD 80 for adults above 18 years of age, and USD 110 for children below the age of 18.
  • The returnee may be entitled to financial re-integration support. The financial support is intended to be an initial support to re-establish life back home. It is the government of Norway that decides which support you may qualify for and finances the support. IOM distributes and administers the support.

Migrants with rejection or who are in the middle of the asylum seeking process:
