An expulsion order is a legal directive issued by a government or authority that requires an individual to leave a specific area or country. This order is often applied to non-citizens who violate immigration laws or pose a threat to public safety. Expulsion orders can be temporary or permanent, depending on the circumstances surrounding the case. The process of issuing an expulsion order typically involves a review of the individual's situation, including any legal rights they may have. Individuals subject to an expulsion order may have the opportunity to appeal the decision, often with the assistance of legal representation or organizations that specialize in immigration law, such as immigration attorneys or human rights groups.
