About the counselling service
The multicultural department within the Directorate of Labour runs a counselling service and its staff is here to help you. The service is free of charge and confidential.
Immigrants can get assistance to feel safe, to be well-informed and supported while living in Iceland. Our counsellors offer information and advice with respect to your privacy and confidentiality.
We are cooperating with key institutions and organizations in Iceland so together we are able to serve you according to your needs.
