The main reason is that he kills Polonius and generally acts crazy. It is also likely that the king is also trying to get rid of him for his own purposes. When Hamlet stages his play "The Mousetrap" he reveals that he knows about the king killing Hamlet's father.

Claudius banishes him to England (with a letter asking the English to execute him) so that he doesn't have to kill Hamlet in Denmark, where he is very popular.

Hamlet , the tragedy by William Shakespeare, is a Play and not a book in the usual sense. It is written in dialogue- play form. It is not a novel or short story.
