The vast majority of us will never encounter such a scenario but...

Outside of asking a family member/friend to retrieve your HW wallet and/or seed
What do you do in such a scenario?

When we are about to be deported, there should still be a procedure, the security forces cannot immediately expel us from our residence, unless we are a criminal, but people are still given the opportunity to retrieve their belongings, but if that is not the case, perhaps storing it online in an encrypted manner is an option that can be taken to back up our seed phrase, but we need to make sure that we add some additional words to our seed phrase and save it on 2 different and reputable platforms, since saving it online is more risky.
