 Immigration Procedures (Student Residence Permit)

Those who will study at an undergraduate, graduate, master's or doctorate program at a higher education institution in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus are required to apply for a student residence permit.

In order to start the immigration procedures, you must have an active student status.

Update your personal information from your departmental desk at the Registrar's Office.

Once the information has been updated, the data will be transferred to the online system of the TRNC Ministry of Internal Affairs within the same day.

  • Then, start your registration procedures at the online immigration procedures section of the webpage of the TRNC Ministry of Internal Affairs.(https: //permissions.gov.ct.tr/login' )
  • After accessing the TRNC Ministry of Internal Affairs' webpage, you need to click on "register now", fill in the requested information on the page that opens and complete the registration process.
  • After the requested information has been completed, information regarding your user code and password will be sent to you via e-mail or telephone. In line with this information, you will be able to access the immigration page.
  • After logging into the Immigration page, you must first approve your health report. If you have a health report, upload it to the system in PDF format.
  •  Health reports for students with Turkish nationality must be obtained from a fully-fledged state or university hospital (the validity period is 2 years.)
