Before anyone starts I have done a search on this and found one post from 2015 on the forum and cannot find anything vis search engines.
Does anyone have upto date office hours for the Immigration Office in Nicosia (Lefkosa) please. Intended to go first thing Thursday morning but times on the BRS website say it is closed on Thursday mornings but opens at 13.15 is this still correct. MTIA.

The current working hours for TRNC civil servants are :
07:30 - 14:00 on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays
and
07:30 - 12:30 and 13:00 to 17:00 on Thursdays

Having TC citizenship, I haven't been to the immigration office for some time, but I would agree with you that "first thing Thursday morning" would be a good time to go.

The times given are valid from May 14th, 2018 to September 16th, 2018. I apolgise to Trigger, to whom I gave the wrong information in msg 3 of the recent http://www.kibkomnorthcyprusforum.com/v ... =8&t=43316 thread.

iancrumpy, "Having TC citizenship" - Well done, 11 years trying and still no further ahead. Everytime we seem to make progress the Government changes and we get to start all over again. I could get citizenship of the RoC easier than this but don't want to live there - lol. Wonder how much money the TRNC Government is missing out on in just citizenship applications?

Thanks - the process is a lot easier if you marry a TC

But we're now getting a little

Just as an update. The office opens at 0745 however, you can get your ticket as early as 0700 as the doors are open. Got the about 0710 and was number 7 in the queue. Got seen about 0830.
