Impediment to expulsion[1][2][3] are practical or legal barriers that prevent a country from enforcing an expulsion or deportation decision of a non-national.
Examples of impediments to expulsion in certain countries are:[citation needed]
- A government's decision on a temporary enforcement halt or suspension of all deportations to a specific country due to for example war
- The home country refuses to receive the person.
- The foreigner's identity was not established.
- Transport is not possible.
- Serious difficulties would arise due to the foreigner's health condition
In some countries and cases, a person who has been asylum seeker but has received negative decision, may still be entitled to reside in the country where the person has applied for a residence permit due to such impediments, and may get a temporary or permanent residence permit.[citation needed]
