Is there a way to delete records on import?

Example: I am importing csv files containing complete administrations. New contacts are added, changed are updated, but I cannot find a way to delete the contacts which have been removed.

If there is not, I would suggest to have contacts deleted when all fields are blank except the contactId itself.

we would recommend you use the civicrm api to delete a set of contacts (when u know the contact id)

i dont think import should do any deleting
